Undefined control sequence when using soft clip #443

Example

\documentclass{standalone}

\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\usepgfplotslibrary{fillbetween}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}[
            % xmin=-3, xmax=3,
            % ymin=-3, ymax=3,
        ]
        \path[name path=x0] (axis cs:-2,0) -- (axis cs:2,0);
        \path[name path=x1] (axis cs:-2,2) -- (axis cs:2,2);
        \addplot fill between [
                of=x0 and x1,
                % soft clip={domain=0:1},
            ];
    \end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Description I get the following error log (full log attached), when I comment out all three commented lines (all three seem to be necessary)

?

The behaviour does not change when I set compat=1.18 (or latest or 1.17 for that matter) and appears with both pdflatex and lualatex. This comes originally from a document that worked in the past (but it's a long time since I tried to compile it so I don't know which versions I had back then).

Your version of PGF is too old. The internal command \tikz@resetexpandcount is only available in PGF 3.1.9a. https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/commit/442b0d4759ab71c8d03f6b32c7e1386b14cab6c3 As a temporary workaround you can add

\makeatletter
\providecommand\tikz@resetexpandcount{\tikz@expandcount=100\relax}
\makeatother

to your preamble.
