# tkz-base
Release 3.06c 2020/04/06
## Description
The package `tkz-base` provides some tools like a Cartesian (rectangular)
coordinate system to other packages like `tkz-euclide` or `tkz-fct`.
With this package, you can draw coordinate axis, grids, draw points, the
principle is to specify the position of any point in two-dimensional space by
an unique couple of coordinates.
## Licence
The scontents package may be modified and distributed under the terms and
conditions of the [LaTeX Project Public
License](https://www.latex-project.org/lppl/), version 1.3c or greater.
## Features
- needs xfp.sty, numprint;
- requires and automatically loads PGF/TikZ > 3.0;
- compiles with utf8, pdflatex, lualatex;
## Installation
The package `tkz-base` is present in `TeXLive` and `MiKTeX`, use the
package manager to install.
You can experiment with the `tkz-base` package by placing all of the
distribution files in the directory containing your current tex file.
For manual instalation all files must be moved into the different directories in your
installation `TDS` tree or in your `TEXMFHOME`:
```
doc/TKZdoc-base.pdf -> TDS:doc/latex/tkz-doc/TKZdoc-base.pdf
doc/examples/*.* -> TDS:doc/latex/tkz-doc/examples/*.*
doc/sourcedoc/*.* -> TDS:doc/latex/tkz-doc/sourcedoc/*.*
code/*.* -> TDS:tex/latex/tkz-doc/*.*
```
## How to use it
To use the package `tkz-base`, place the following lines in the preamble of
your LaTeX document.
```
\usepackage{tkz-base}
```
The line `\usepackage{tkz-base}` loads TikZ.
The line `\usetkzobj{all}` loads all objects used by `tkz-euclide`.
With `\usepackage{tkz-euclide}` you don't need to use `\usetkzobj`
To avoid package conflicts, you need to load `xcolor` before `TikZ` or `tkz-base` or
`tkz-euclide`.
## Documentation
Documentations for `tkz-base` and `tkz-euclide` are available on CTAN and your
distribution.
## Examples
All examples given in documentation will be stored on CTAN as standalone
files, ready for compilation. You can use the main.tex file to load and
compile an example.
Other examples, en français, can be found on my site [http://altermundus.fr](http://altermundus.fr).
## Compatibility
The new version of `tkz-base` is *not* fully compatible with the version 1.16 but
the differences are minor
