Vertical alignment of the `aligned` environment in table cells This adds a slight complication, since in the real tables, I'm using longtable. Still, it's a very nice thought. |

Finding a more efficient editor for collaboration of LaTeX people and Word people I would note that an up-to-date version of TeXShop (for Macs only) automatically has a two-directional link between the TeX source and the Preview. I expect that other editors behave similarly with the right settings (in particular, if they are set up to compile with syntax). |

Vertical alignment of the `aligned` environment in table cells I want every row to be aligned on top except the top row, which should be vertically centered. (Although you are free to persuade me otherwise.) |

Vertical alignment of the `aligned` environment in table cells I see your point about entries of the first column being a bit crowded vertically, but the real tables I'm making include several pages worth of computer-generated examples, and breaking all the lines by hand is not practical. (On the other hand, programming my computer to output \linebreak[0] after every comma is quite easy.) |

Vertical alignment of the `aligned` environment in table cells You also need to put a parbox around the contents of row 1 column 1, in order to make keep the headings vertically centered once you've changed the m to p. However, I consider this "legal" since there's no good way to get around artificially imposing the width of the first column. |

Are TikZ figures and plots allowed on a Physical Review A/B/… paper? @HenriMenke: Anyone who wants to externalize pictures should also consider the standalone package and class. In its most basic (but not only) usage, you can make a separate tex file for every tikz picture and have its document class be standalone; then when you latex it, the resulting pdf file will be sized for inclusion as a graphic. I suspect you can also produce an eps or at least ps file that can probably (?) be included for the dvips workflow, but I have not actually tried this. |

Organizing images for multiple latex files So, in essence, you eliminate the need to have the image in the same directory as the source by giving the absolute path to the image, rather than the path "starting in the current directory." One potential concern: this makes it harder to include all the necessary files if you want to send someone the source for a project that re-uses image code from another project. |

Beautiful table samples +1 for the observation that the tabu package documentation is an eyesore. |

Brace diagram in TikZ First, that particular problem will probably be solved by adding the key left to the relevant node, as in node [left,black,midway,xshift=-0.6cm]
{\footnotesize $P_1$}; you will probably also need to adjust the xshift value after doing this. Second, braces in TikZ are generally used to add labels after the "main objects" have already been placed. Using them as part of the "structure" of a tree is certainly possible, but it hardly seems worth the effort when the cases environment is available. |

Brace diagram in TikZ If I'm correctly reading your question, you do have tikz code--it just doesn't give the right output: "The first part of 'text here' went out of the boundaries into the brace." |

Asymptote: convert triple to array In Asymptote, Transform3 is really an alias for a 4x4 transformation matrix (it's defined in plain_prethree.asy). So extend your (I assume) 3x3 matrix to a 4x4 matrix by putting a 1 in the new diagonal entry and 0s in all the other new entries. Call the new 4x4 matrix T and your triple x. Then you should simply be able to write T*x. |

Brace diagram in TikZ It might be helpful if you were to post your TikZ code (in a working example) so that people can check it out and perhaps understand why it's not doing what you want. |

Eps Position Problem By the way, why does this have the tikz tag? As far as I can tell, the pgfplots package is loaded but not actually used for anything. |

Eps Position Problem Never mind my previous comment about using the caption command outside a float; it does not seem to work like this. |

Eps Position Problem If you really want the image exactly where you put it in the source code, you may want to avoid using a figure environment at all, since--as I understand it--the purpose of such environments is to allow LaTeX more flexibility in placing the images. I'm pretty sure the caption command still works outside of figure environments, so you can still add a caption this way. |

Hiding arrow in xymatrix? @Sigur: Actually, I kind of like the effect that Greyfox achieves here for taking quotients on the left. Normally, when I see something typeset like G \ H x C, I find it confusing to translate this to "take H x C and mod out by G acting on the right." When something like this is handwritten, the G is often lowered slightly to emphasize that the "main noun of the noun phrase" is H x C. |

How to turn off an environment (e.g. tikzpicture) for faster draft compiling @T.Verron: First of all, the question is not an exact duplicate; it just so happens that the answer there applies here. Second, if you eliminate the lines about drawing a box in the answer there, it should be adaptable to "turn off" any environment. |
