One can specify the width and height to \LaTeX\ explicitly. This 3D example can be viewed interactively either with Adobe Reader or Asymptote's fast OpenGL-based renderer. It is often desirable to embed such files as annotated attachments; this requires the optional \verb+\usepackage{attachfile2}+ package and the \verb+{attach=true}+ option: \begin{center} \begin{asy}[height=4cm,attach=false] import three; currentprojection=orthographic(5,4,2); draw(unitcube,blue); label("$V-E+F=2$",(0,1,0.5),3Y,blue+fontsize(17pt)); \end{asy} \end{center} One can also scale the figure to the full line width: \begin{center} \begin{asy}[width=\the\linewidth] pair z0=(0,0); pair z1=(2,0); pair z2=(5,0); pair zf=z1+0.75*(z2-z1); draw(z1--z2); dot(z1,red+0.15cm); dot(z2,darkgreen+0.3cm); label("$m$",z1,1.2N,red); label("$M$",z2,1.5N,darkgreen); label("$\hat{\ }$",zf,0.2*S,fontsize(24pt)+blue); pair s=-0.2*I; draw("$x$",z0+s--z1+s,N,red,Arrows,Bars,PenMargins); s=-0.5*I; draw("$\bar{x}$",z0+s--zf+s,blue,Arrows,Bars,PenMargins); s=-0.95*I; draw("$X$",z0+s--z2+s,darkgreen,Arrows,Bars,PenMargins); \end{asy} \end{center} \end{document}
