I am using the following resources:
The
multicolsenvironment of Draw a set of arrows using a palette of colors.The box of How to put a long piece of text in a box?

I would like to:
- Center every arrow to the corresponding checkbox.
- Put to work
multicols(it says "4" but it is actually 1 column). - Get rid of the "Bad Box(es)" messages by making a good use of
fbox(or similar command). - Not say
parbox{5cm}{...}butparbox{<automatic>}{...}, whereparboxcalculates the proper vertical space of the box, based on the quantity of columns.
I want this:

P.S. There can actually be 4 or 5 or any number of columns.

I hope I didn't screw it but I tested on acroread and it seemed to still work. All I did was to comment out multicolumn (the purpose of which I didn't understand), added some quads and gave the tikzpictures some baselines.

For example, add these lines of code outsideforeachbut inside thetikzpicture: (1)pgfmathsetmacro{huenumm}{18*0.75*(1/totalnodes)}(2)definecolor{mycolor2}{hsb}{huenumm,1,1}(3)draw[-latex,mycolor2,very thick] (18-Title.east) to[manoooh curve=1.6] (29-Title.west);.

@manooooh That's a tough problem because I do not know how the ocgx stuff works. I would guess that the solution is to add these arrows to the lists after you have used the list to draw the arrows. That is, (1) use smaller lists to draw the arrows, (2) draw additional arrows "by hand" and add them to the lists afterwards, (3) do the ocgx with the full lists. Does that make sense? P.S. will go to basketball now...

I do not think that makes sense at all. I think that if we create smaller lists and then add it to a general list the order will not be preserver: we will have the first "X" arrows in hue gradient and then the last "Y" arrows that have a new hue gradient of colors, so the colors would be mixed, isn't it? However I am not sure how theocgxstuff work, too.

I hope I didn't screw it but I tested on acroread and it seemed to still work. All I did was to comment out multicolumn (the purpose of which I didn't understand), added some quads and gave the tikzpictures some baselines.

I have a problem: I need to add arrows apart from theforeach. Do you remember this question: Design an algorithm capable of predicting collisions to choose alternative path usingtikzpictureenvironment? Well, I need to add new arrows, but them are not shown inparbox. Do you know how can the arrows appear?

Mar 31 at 22:33
For example, add these lines of code outsideforeachbut inside thetikzpicture: (1)pgfmathsetmacro{huenumm}{18*0.75*(1/totalnodes)}(2)definecolor{mycolor2}{hsb}{huenumm,1,1}(3)draw[-latex,mycolor2,very thick] (18-Title.east) to[manoooh curve=1.6] (29-Title.west);. If you compile then this new arrow is not shown, which is reasonable, but I do not know how to add it to the list.

@manooooh That's a tough problem because I do not know how the ocgx stuff works. I would guess that the solution is to add these arrows to the lists after you have used the list to draw the arrows. That is, (1) use smaller lists to draw the arrows, (2) draw additional arrows "by hand" and add them to the lists afterwards, (3) do the ocgx with the full lists. Does that make sense? P.S. will go to basketball now...
– marmot
Mar 31 at 22:39
I do not think that makes sense at all. I think that if we create smaller lists and then add it to a general list the order will not be preserver: we will have the first "X" arrows in hue gradient and then the last "Y" arrows that have a new hue gradient of colors, so the colors would be mixed, isn't it? However I am not sure how theocgxstuff work, too.

@manooooh Oh, but then I either completely misunderstand your question, the ocgx code, or both.

I hope I didn't screw it but I tested on acroread and it seemed to still work. All I did was to comment out multicolumn (the purpose of which I didn't understand), added some quads and gave the tikzpictures some baselines.

I hope I didn't screw it but I tested on acroread and it seemed to still work. All I did was to comment out multicolumn (the purpose of which I didn't understand), added some quads and gave the tikzpictures some baselines.

I have a problem: I need to add arrows apart from theforeach. Do you remember this question: Design an algorithm capable of predicting collisions to choose alternative path usingtikzpictureenvironment? Well, I need to add new arrows, but them are not shown inparbox. Do you know how can the arrows appear?
– manooooh
Mar 31 at 22:33
For example, add these lines of code outsideforeachbut inside thetikzpicture: (1)pgfmathsetmacro{huenumm}{18*0.75*(1/totalnodes)}(2)definecolor{mycolor2}{hsb}{huenumm,1,1}(3)draw[-latex,mycolor2,very thick] (18-Title.east) to[manoooh curve=1.6] (29-Title.west);. If you compile then this new arrow is not shown, which is reasonable, but I do not know how to add it to the list.

@manooooh That's a tough problem because I do not know how the ocgx stuff works. I would guess that the solution is to add these arrows to the lists after you have used the list to draw the arrows. That is, (1) use smaller lists to draw the arrows, (2) draw additional arrows "by hand" and add them to the lists afterwards, (3) do the ocgx with the full lists. Does that make sense? P.S. will go to basketball now...
– marmot
Mar 31 at 22:39
I do not think that makes sense at all. I think that if we create smaller lists and then add it to a general list the order will not be preserver: we will have the first "X" arrows in hue gradient and then the last "Y" arrows that have a new hue gradient of colors, so the colors would be mixed, isn't it? However I am not sure how theocgxstuff work, too.

@manooooh Oh, but then I either completely misunderstand your question, the ocgx code, or both.

I do not think that makes sense at all. I think that if we create smaller lists and then add it to a general list the order will not be preserver: we will have the first "X" arrows in hue gradient and then the last "Y" arrows that have a new hue gradient of colors, so the colors would be mixed, isn't it? However I am not sure how theocgxstuff work, too.

@manooooh Oh, but then I either completely misunderstand your question, the ocgx code, or both.

I have a problem: I need to add arrows apart from the
foreach. Do you remember this question: Design an algorithm capable of predicting collisions to choose alternative path using tikzpicture environment? Well, I need to add new arrows, but them are not shown in parbox. Do you know how can the arrows appear?– manooooh

For example, add these lines of code outside
foreach but inside the tikzpicture: (1) pgfmathsetmacro{huenumm}{18*0.75*(1/totalnodes)} (2) definecolor{mycolor2}{hsb}{huenumm,1,1} (3) draw[-latex,mycolor2,very thick] (18-Title.east) to[manoooh curve=1.6] (29-Title.west);. If you compile then this new arrow is not shown, which is reasonable, but I do not know how to add it to the list.– manooooh

@manooooh That's a tough problem because I do not know how the ocgx stuff works. I would guess that the solution is to add these arrows to the lists after you have used the list to draw the arrows. That is, (1) use smaller lists to draw the arrows, (2) draw additional arrows "by hand" and add them to the lists afterwards, (3) do the ocgx with the full lists. Does that make sense? P.S. will go to basketball now...
