The 'escape' mode is the default and handles special LaTeX characters by escaping them. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_file from io import StringIO svg_text = r''' Formula: $x^2 + y^2 = r^2$ ''' # Escape mode (default) - escapes special LaTeX characters code = convert_file(StringIO(svg_text), texmode="escape", codeoutput="codeonly") # Special characters like $, %, _, etc. are escaped ``` -------------------------------- ### SVG Path Library Mode (Python) Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt Utilizes TikZ's svg.path library for direct SVG path syntax conversion. Offers standard conversion or direct use of SVG path commands. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_file from io import StringIO svg_complex_path = r''' ''' # Standard conversion (converts path commands to TikZ) code = convert_file(StringIO(svg_complex_path), svg_paths=False, codeoutput="codeonly") # Output: \path[...] (x, y) -- (x2, y2) .. controls ... -- cycle; # SVG path mode (uses svg.path library) code = convert_file(StringIO(svg_complex_path), svg_paths=True, codeoutput="standalone") # Output includes: \usetikzlibrary{svg.path} # And uses: \path[...] svg {M 1000 750 L 2000 750 Q 2250 1000 2500 1250 Z}; ``` -------------------------------- ### LaTeX: Animating TikZ Components with SVG2TikZ Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt This LaTeX code snippet demonstrates how to integrate modular TikZ figures, exported using SVG2TikZ, into a LaTeX document. It defines articulation points as commands and uses nested TikZ scopes with the 'rotate around' option to animate different parts of a figure, such as a human body. This approach allows for programmatic control and animation of vector graphics within a LaTeX environment. ```latex \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} % Define articulation points (coordinates extracted from SVG) \newcommand{\hipArt}{(1.3537, 6.2435)} \newcommand{\kneeArt}{(1.3537, 3.3575)} \newcommand{\ankleArt}{(1.0781, 0.6906)} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[y=1cm, x=1cm, inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt] % Include torso (exported from SVG) \input{parts/torso.tex} % Thigh with rotation around hip joint \begin{scope}[rotate around={30:\hipArt}] \input{parts/thigh.tex} % Calf with rotation around knee joint \begin{scope}[rotate around={-20:\kneeArt}] \input{parts/calf.tex} % Foot with rotation around ankle joint \begin{scope}[rotate around={10:\ankleArt}] \input{parts/foot.tex} \end{scope} % Draw ankle joint \draw[line width=0.018cm] \ankleArt circle(0.05); \end{scope} % Draw knee joint \draw[line width=0.018cm] \kneeArt circle(0.05); \end{scope} % Draw hip joint \draw[line width=0.018cm] \hipArt circle(0.05); \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} ``` -------------------------------- ### Selective Element Conversion (Python) Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt Converts specific SVG elements by their IDs, allowing for targeted extraction of components from complex drawings. Supports converting single or multiple elements. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_file from io import StringIO svg_multiple = r''' ''' # Convert only rect1 code = convert_file( StringIO(svg_multiple), ids=["rect1"], verbose=True, # Add element IDs as comments codeoutput="codeonly" ) # Output includes only rect1 with comment # Convert multiple specific elements code = convert_file( StringIO(svg_multiple), ids=["rect1", "rect3"], verbose=True, codeoutput="codeonly" ) # Output includes rect1 and rect3, excludes rect2 ``` -------------------------------- ### Convert SVG with Transformations to TikZ Figure (Python) Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt This Python code snippet demonstrates converting an SVG containing various transformations (translate, rotate, scale, matrix) into TikZ code. The `convert_file` function from `svg2tikz` is used with `codeoutput="figonly"` to generate a TikZ picture environment. Setting `verbose=True` adds comments indicating group and element IDs in the output. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_file from io import StringIO svg_transforms = r''' ''' code = convert_file( StringIO(svg_transforms), codeoutput="figonly", verbose=True # Show group/element IDs in comments ) # Output includes TikZ scope environments with transforms: # \begin{scope}[shift={(2.0, 7.0)}] # \path[fill=blue] (0.0, 0.0) rectangle (2.0, 1.0); # \end{scope} # \begin{scope}[rotate around={-45:(5.0, 5.0)}] # \path[fill=green] (4.0, 4.0) rectangle (6.0, 6.0); # \end{scope} ``` -------------------------------- ### Inkscape Extension Usage for SVG to TikZ Export Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt Instructions for using SVG2TikZ as an Inkscape extension. This involves copying specific files to the Inkscape extensions directory and then accessing the export functionality through the Inkscape Extensions menu. The process includes selecting elements, configuring export options, and applying the export. ```shell # Extension location (copy tikz_export.py, tikz_export_effect.inx, tikz_export_output.inx): # Linux: ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/ # Windows: C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\ # macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/org.inkscape.Inkscape/config/inkscape/extensions/ # In Inkscape: # 1. Open your SVG file # 2. Select elements to export (or none for entire document) # 3. Go to Extensions > Export > Export to TikZ path # 4. Configure options: # - Output format (Standalone/Figure/Code only) # - Text mode (Escape/Raw/Math) # - Scale factor # - Output unit # - Marker handling # - Copy to clipboard option # 5. Click Apply # The exported code can be used in LaTeX: # \documentclass{article} # \usepackage{tikz} # \begin{document} # \input{exported_figure.tex} % For figonly output # \end{document} ``` -------------------------------- ### Convert SVG String to TikZ Code Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt Converts SVG content provided as a string directly to TikZ code. Supports various options for output format, arrow interpretation, and writing directly to a file. Useful for dynamic SVG generation. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_svg # Simple SVG with a path svg_arrow = r''' ''' # Convert with arrow markers interpreted code = convert_svg( svg_arrow, returnstring=True, codeoutput="codeonly", indent=False, markings="arrows", # Options: "ignore", "include", "interpret", "arrows" arrow="latex" # Arrow style: "latex", "stealth", "to", ">" ) print(code) # Write output directly to file convert_svg( svg_arrow, no_output=False, returnstring=False, output="output.tex", codeoutput="standalone", crop=True # Add preview package for cropping ) ``` -------------------------------- ### Convert SVG File to TikZ Code Source: https://context7.com/xyz2tex/svg2tikz/llms.txt Converts an SVG file or stream to TikZ code. Supports various output formats (standalone, figure-only, code-only), unit scaling, text handling, and coordinate rounding. Can read from file paths or StringIO objects. ```python from svg2tikz import convert_file from io import StringIO # Convert SVG file to standalone LaTeX document tikz_code = convert_file("drawing.svg") print(tikz_code) # Convert from StringIO with code-only output (no document wrapper) svg_content = r''' ''' code = convert_file( StringIO(svg_content), codeoutput="codeonly", # Options: "standalone", "figonly", "codeonly" output_unit="cm", # Options: "mm", "cm", "m", "in", "pt", "px", "Q", "pc" scale=1.5, # Apply scale factor to output indent=True, # Indent generated code wrap=False # Wrap long lines at 80 characters ) print(code) # Convert with figure-only output (tikzpicture environment, no document) code = convert_file( StringIO(svg_content), codeoutput="figonly", noreversey=True, # Don't flip Y-axis (keep SVG coordinate system) round_number=2 # Round coordinates to 2 decimal places ) ``` === COMPLETE CONTENT === This response contains all available snippets from this library.
