QUESTION
This is a follow-up question on this then this one. I am trying to include someTikZ
code into an rmarkdown
file. The first question solved the problem about using bullets in node label whereas the second question added the use of varwidth
instead of minipage
environment.
Adding the fontspec
package raised another problem I can't seem to solve. The following error is raised whenever I added the package in my list:
! Fatal Package fontspec Error: The fontspec package requires either XeTeX or
(fontspec) LuaTeX.
(fontspec)
(fontspec) You must change your typesetting engine to,
(fontspec) e.g., "xelatex" or "lualatex"instead of
(fontspec) "latex" or "pdflatex".
Following the previous answers, the code is composed of the following 2 files:

Answered 2019-Jun-24 at 07:36As explained in https://stackoverflow.com/a/51143900/8416610 you have to tell tinytex::latexmk
to use xelatex
instead of pdflatex
by using options(tinytex.engine = 'xelatex')
in a set-up chunk.
In addition, you should update your tikz2pdf.tex
for compatibility with XeTeX:
- Remove option
pdftex
from packagepreview
- Remove package
inputenc
.
With these changes your document works for me.
QUESTION
I have a tikz code to generate some graphs that works properly in latex
(tested on overleaf: https://www.overleaf.com). However, this is supposed to be part of a large rmarkdown
file but I cannot seem to use bullets list in some of my node labels while in rmarkdown
. My questions are:
- how can I use a list of bullets as tikz's node label in
rmarkdown
? - how can I customize that list to include some formatting like color, margin etc.?
- Where do things defined in
latex
using\newlist
,\setlist
go when usingrmarkdown
?
I could generate these figures in latex
and include them using knitr::include_graphics(...) but I prefer to use a more automatic way where I could just let the code generates the figures and embeds them as they arise into the file.
ANSWER
Answered 2019-Jun-16 at 08:45If you want to have complex text in a node with paragraph, line breaking, etc, you need to put it in a box like a parbox or minipage. Otherwise, tikz has no way to determine text width and to perform any kind of formatting.
