Dimension too large (PGFPlots) #685

Open lmagno opened 7 years ago

lmagno commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I stumbled upon this and can't figure out what is happening

julia> using Plots

julia> pgfplots()
Plots.PGFPlotsBackend()

julia> plot([1, 2, 3, 4], [1000.0, 1000.0, 1000.0, 999.99])  # works
julia> plot([1, 2, 3, 4], [1000.0, 1000.0, 1000.0, 999.999])
! Dimension too large.
<recently read> \pgf@yy 

l.35 \end{axis}

It works fine using PGFPlots directly, though, and other backends.

I have

Can you save the tex file and create a minimum example for the tex file that is broken.

lmagno commented 7 years ago

This is the tex from PGFPlots (works):

\RequirePackage{luatex85}
\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}
\pgfplotsset{every axis legend/.append style={%
cells={anchor=west}}
}
\usepgfplotslibrary{polar}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows}
\tikzset{>=stealth'}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[]
\begin{axis}\addplot+ coordinates {
(1.0, 1000.0)
(2.0, 1000.0)
(3.0, 1000.0)
(4.0, 999.999)
};
\end{axis}

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

This is cleaned up from Plots (error)

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}
\pgfplotsset{every axis legend/.append style={%
cells={anchor=west}}
}
\usepgfplotslibrary{polar}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows}
\tikzset{>=stealth'}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[]
\begin{axis}[width = {152.4mm}, ymax = {1000.0}, height = {101.6mm}, ymin = {999.999}, xmax = {4.0}, xmin = {1.0}]\addplot+ coordinates {
(1.0, 1000.0)
(2.0, 1000.0)
(3.0, 1000.0)
(4.0, 999.999)
};
\addlegendentry{y1}
\end{axis}

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

I tried changing it to

\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}
\pgfplotsset{every axis legend/.append style={%
cells={anchor=west}}
}
\usepgfplotslibrary{polar}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows}
\tikzset{>=stealth'}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[]
\begin{axis}[width = {152.4mm}, ymax = {1000.0}, height = {101.6mm}, ymin = {999.99}, xmax = {4.0}, xmin = {1.0}]\addplot+ coordinates {
(1.0, 1000.0)
(2.0, 1000.0)
(3.0, 1000.0)
(4.0, 999.99)
};
\addlegendentry{y1}
\end{axis}

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

and now it gives "undefined control sequence" instead of "dimension too large" (maybe I'm missing something, I just compiled directly with lualatex).

EDIT: turns out putting \RequirePackage{luatex85} solves the "undefined control sequence", so now ymin = {999.99} is compilable, while ymin = {999.9999} only gives the warning

Package pgfplots Warning: Axis range for axis y is approximately empty; enlargi
ng it (it is [999.9998000000000:1000.0000000]) on input line 21.

still errors on pgfplotsx-backend

putianyi889 commented 1 year ago

I'm guessing it's because of bad ylims. I have the same error in a different situation. Actively reorganising the data could be the way to solve it.

julia> plot(100*rand(100), ylims=(0,1))
