TLDR: The photos WERE being overwritten, but the date was kept the same as the original file, due to a quirk of windows when a folder has lots of photos. Jon’s answer from 10/2/2015 did the trick for me. https://superuser.com/questions/147525/what-is-the-date-column-in-windows-7-explorer-it-matches-no-date-column-from/335901#335901 Basically windows detects lots of pictures in a folder and “optimizes” said folder for pictures. … Read more
Solution found: write \protect\cite{ref} instead of just \cite{ref} Or even shorter: ‘{\cite{ref}}’
If you know the handle of line you want on top (e.g. because you called h = plot(…), you can use uistack uistack(h,’top’) Alternatively, you can manipulate the order of children of your current axes directly. The following puts the last-most curve on top. chH = get(gca,’Children’) set(gca,’Children’,[chH(end);chH(1:end-1)])
\begin{figure}[hbtp] h = here b = botom t = top p = page of floats Algorithm will try the current position in document first, then bottom, then top and then on a seperate page. If you just specify ‘h’ you will force placement where the figure command is in the document. The order is encoded … Read more
If you find yourself doing things like this regularly it may be worth investigating the object-oriented interface to matplotlib. In your case: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np x = np.arange(5) y = np.exp(x) fig1, ax1 = plt.subplots() ax1.plot(x, y) ax1.set_title(“Axis 1 title”) ax1.set_xlabel(“X-label for axis 1”) z = np.sin(x) fig2, (ax2, ax3) … Read more
plt.gcf() to get current figure plt.gca() to get current axis
Use saveas: h=figure; plot(x,y,’-bs’,’Linewidth’,1.4,’Markersize’,10); % … saveas(h,name,’fig’) saveas(h,name,’jpg’) This way, the figure is plotted, and automatically saved to ‘.jpg’ and ‘.fig’. You don’t need to wait for the plot to appear and click ‘save as’ in the menu. Way to go if you need to plot/save a lot of figures. If you really do not … Read more
pyplot is the ‘scripting’ level API in matplotlib (its highest level API to do a lot with matplotlib). It allows you to use matplotlib using a procedural interface in a similar way as you can do it with Matlab. pyplot has a notion of ‘current figure’ and ‘current axes’ that all the functions delegate to … Read more
Another interesting parameter for a lot of functions is transform (unlike orientation or pivot this parameter can also be used in e.g. plot). The transform parameter allows you to add a transformation, specified by a Transform object. For the sake of example, this is how you would rotate the plot of some random data: import … Read more
