PGFPlots + TikZ: Stranger Beamer behavior












1















I am trying to include a PGFPlots + TikZ figure in a beamer presentation made with the metropolis theme. If I compile the figure in a normal article class (or standalone), the figure is fine. The code for the figure is the following:



documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{shapes}
usepackage{pgfplots}
pgfplotsset{compat=newest}

usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % Required for including letters with accents

begin{document}

begin{tikzpicture}
begin{axis}[
width=textwidth,
height=8cm,
hide y axis,
axis x line*=bottom,
xtick={-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3},
xticklabels={$bar x-3s$,$bar x-2s$,$bar x-s$,$bar x$,$bar x+s$,$bar x+2s$,$bar x+3s$},
xmin = -3.5,
xmax = 3.5,
ymin = 0,
ymax = 0.9,
]
draw[dashed] (axis cs:-3,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:-3,0.85);
draw[dashed] (axis cs:-2,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:-2,0.7);
draw[dashed] (axis cs:-1,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:-1,0.55);
draw[dashed] (axis cs:1,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:1,0.55);
draw[dashed] (axis cs:2,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:2,0.7);
draw[dashed] (axis cs:3,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:3,0.85);
draw[stealth-stealth](-1,0.55) -- (1,0.55) node[midway,fill=white]{68%};
node at(0,0.5) {1 desviación};
node at(0,0.45) {estándar};
draw[stealth-stealth](-2,0.7) -- (2,0.7) node[midway,fill=white]{95%};
node at(0,0.65) {2 desviaciones estándar};
draw[stealth-stealth](-3,0.85) -- (3,0.85) node[midway,fill=white]{99.7%};
node at(0,0.8) {3 desviaciones estándar};
addplot[samples=201,ultra thick] {exp(-x^2/2)/sqrt(2*pi)};
draw[thick,dashed] (axis cs:0,pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/ymin}) -- (axis cs:0,{1/sqrt(2*pi)});
end{axis}
end{tikzpicture}

end{document}


This produces this figure:

If I now try to put that figure inside a beamer presentation (using the metropolis theme), the code I am using is:

          So after a bit of detective work, it turns out that the problem is caused by




          • the metropolis theme

          • and therein from the pgfplotsthemetol package which is loaded at the end of the peramble

          • which sets pgfplotsset{compat=1.9}

          • Thank you very much @samcarter! Indeed this solved the problem. I will warn the metropolisdevelopers. I have no idea how the LaTeX engine works but shouldn't pgfplotsset{compat=newest}override any previous version statement, even putting it in the preamble?

          • @RAO It does overwrite the previous statement, but metropolis instructs to load pgfplotsset{compat=1.9} at the end of the preamble and thus overwrites your statement which was issued before.

          • Thank you very much @samcarter! Indeed this solved the problem. I will warn the metropolisdevelopers. I have no idea how the LaTeX engine works but shouldn't pgfplotsset{compat=newest}override any previous version statement, even putting it in the preamble?

          • @RAO It does overwrite the previous statement, but metropolis instructs to load pgfplotsset{compat=1.9} at the end of the preamble and thus overwrites your statement which was issued before.

          • Oh I see. I will ask the metropolisdevelopers to have a look at it. Thank you very much!
