Standalone workaround does not trigger #65

Closed schillic closed 3 years ago

schillic commented 3 years ago

The workaround for standalone catches a specific error message:

https://github.com/JuliaTeX/TikzPictures.jl/blob/34dfc43aaa7f1a983af8ea23cd4996f4dc958dcf/src/TikzPictures.jl#L258

For me the error message differs and hence the workaround does not kick in:

\sa@placebox ...wd \sa@box \global \pdfpageheight

I tried on two different systems (Ubuntu and Fedora) and got the same error. I can of course work around this by manually enabling the workaround. But maybe you could consider generalizing the filter (I guess replacing ->\\newpage by a wildcard should do the trick).

Ah, interesting! Yes, feel free to file a PR with that filter. We don't want it to be too broad though, but what you describe seems okay. Which version of texlive are you running?

Alright, probably in the next days :snail:

Which version of texlive are you running?

Ubuntu: 2017; Fedora: 2019

Sorry, this was a wrong report. I do get the same substring in the error message, so the issue is somewhere else. For context, I want to use TreeView, which uses TikzGraphs for printing a tikz picture in a notebook. Somewhere in this pipeline there seems to be a problem for me (for at least one other person it seems to work). But I give up now and just always do this:

using TreeView
using TikzPictures  # workaround
TikzPictures.standaloneWorkaround(true)  # workaround
@tree exp(x^4 + 2) - x^3
