plates: how add size annotation to bottom right corner #3

Open murphyk opened 5 months ago

murphyk commented 5 months ago

I see the rock_layers.py example. But is there a way to specify the size of the plate in the bottom right corner of each box, as is traditional?

It seems that currently texnn generates some text outside the figure saying "10 layers" or whatever. But I want to generate something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_notation

If you look in my book Bayesuvius under "Plate Notation" (the chapters are in alphabetical order), you will find a brief chapter explaining the Plate Notation features of texnn. The way I understand it, you can have plates in series and in parallel. The wikipedia article considers only plates in parallel, but the plates in the vanilla transformer are in series. I struggled to decide where in the f*cking diagram to put the "legend" for the plate. It's tricky, specially when you have overlapping plates. I finally decided to put it "outside the figure", just below the diagram like a caption
