I have the following drawing made with tikz:


% File myDrawing.tex
\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}

\usetikzlibrary{math} %needed tikz library
\tikzmath{\x1 = 1; \y1 =1; \x2 = \x1 + 1; \y2 =\y1 +3; }

% Using the variables for drawing
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw[very ...

I am looking for a way to compactly create the following list of lines and text nodes:


\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (-0.2,0) node[left]{Text 1} -- (+0.2,0);
\draw (-0.2,2) node[left]{Second Text} -- (+0.2,2);
\draw (-0.2,3) node[left]{3rd ...

Thanks a lot!

(I prefer your first suggestion).

I am following the advice in this answer , about shifting the values of an already declared node in a tikz picture.

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node (A) at (0,0) {};
\node (B) at (-4,2) {};
\draw[black,fill=black] (B) circle (1pt);
\draw ...

Thanks a lot Stefan!
I wasn't familiar with the quotes library. Thanks for illustrating its usage.

And yes, I am aware of the siunitx package, it is just that I wanted to keep my example minimal.

I want to draw the following:
Capture.PNG
Something that resembles a bit engineering drawings that specify object's dimensions.

The code I have at the moment is this:

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) -- (6,0) -- (6,3) -- (0,3 ...

@Bartman Thanks a lot!

I want to reproduce the following plot:
graph.png

It is made of the following points (red in image):
\fill[red] (0,{sin(2*pi*1.2*0 r)}) circle (2pt);
\fill[red] (1,{sin(2*pi*1.2*1 r)}) circle (2pt);
\fill[red] (2,{sin(2*pi*1.2*2 r)}) circle (2pt);
% and so on up until the 21st point:
\fill[red ...

Answering my own question:

Yes, this is the correct path.

I want to customize the typeface for chapters and sections in the settings of a .def file.
My question is, how do I that?
For example, this is the subsection style as it is now:
\titleformat{\subsection}%
[hang]% shape
{\fontfamily{palatino}\normalfont\large}% format applied to label+text ...
