@KannappanSampath yep, it's looking good at the moment, other than the fact that I can't hide the hidden bits- am working on a PSTricks solution instead- unless anyone has any ideas
@KannappanSampath Howdy! Semester has been pretty busy for me (getting the texies to help write my exams). I've made it through chapter 6 if you wanted to work on that (no rush though, I won't have any real time until the weekend).
@JackSchmidt I am having an exam in ring theory in the next week and from monday, I have midsemester exams. I'd love to ask you some questions from that chapter, ch. 6.
We can discuss them perhaps when both of us are free ... I'll let you know, via a ping , when I am done with exams. @Jack
@StephanLehmke I know, actually, I wanted to know if I'm not missing some easy solution. For me, the question is more like "let's see if anybody else would be interested in something like that, and then try to find someone who's willing to code it (or help me code it)."
I am currently developing a new layout. This must be typeset on a grid, and every line starts at a multiple of 13bp from the top of the text area. To help me check, I'd like to have rules every 13bp from the top of that area on every page without interfering with the typeset text. This is similar...
Hehe. I opened a but against pdf2htmlEX about the bug with fonts in PDFs generated with LuaTeX and joined the geneve_1564 document as an example. The dev replied asking if he could use the document as a demo for his program.
maybe they changed the algorithm used to select which account is picked…

@Patrick If you want the same name everywhere, copy profile to all accounts when editing, log in to all the accounts and their metas, log in to network profile, sync with oldest account, log in to chat, change parent user to what you want, refresh a few times till you see total rep for chat and parent site symbol and badge count, then you are done. Phew!
@JosephWright Herbert's answer is awesome! It seems that the fusion option makes it possible- is there such a thing for pgfplots? I don't think there is. I'll be deleting my answer soon....
How can I generate the above image using tikz(possibly other methods will work if they produce better looking results)? I would like to have a nicely shaded(not so dark image) without gridlines and possibly enough opacity on the torus to see the hidden part of the helix.
The image given is ver...
@cmhughes I'm not sure about 'cannot be done' (TikZ ultimately places ink on a page, which PSTricks does too), but something that would be very tricky to do in any reasonable way
+1 Moral of the story: The OP should always supply a complete document that shows the problem (or rely on someone with a crystal ball:-) — David Carlisle39 mins ago
I have some thoughts:
Try to make sure you know beforehand (almost) everything your paper needs. Tables, figures, charts, and so forth. It's easier to write something when you already have an idea of what will be there afterwards. :)
Does your paper use a special document class, e.g. IEEEtran? ...
@Patrick That one is a recurring theme (I already have several answers on site:-) that the "header" is latex's hook for anything that should be at a fixed position relative to the page rather than part of the text flow, and a zero sized picture mode in a header is a typical way of placing such things at set coordinates on a page. Normally it's logos and the like but rules are easier:-)
@DavidCarlisle that makes much sense. In my LuaTeX systems, I place boxes with horizontal and vertical kerns inside a 0 sized box, so that I am always in the top left position for the next object. But with LaTeX this is not possible, but the header hack is nice to know.
Another question that paralyzes me as a flashlight does to a rabbit. In my thesis ,using memoir class, I have a subsection defined as \subsection{$\mu-$analysis}. But during the compilation I get these three warnings:
Is there any question that addresses this behavior? Searching the error didn't give me anything.
When compiling a beamer presentation and using the following \author command
\author{Name \\ \texttt{my.email@domain.com}}
I get the following hyperref warning in my logfile
Package hyperref Warning: Token not allowed in a PDF string (PDFDocEncoding):

@JosephWright Here is another one that puzzles me. Both $k\in\SIrange{0}{\bar{k}}{\newton\per\metre}$ and $k\in\SIrange{0}{\text{$\bar{k}$}{\newton\per\metre}$ don't work and adding ensuremath also doesn't help. I'm using mode=math but is it only applicable to numbers?
I am facing a very strange problem. Texmaker quits with an error under a very specific condition, which has nothing to do with compilation, but rather what I type. Say for a minimal working example, I start typing
\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\begin{document}...

I have a question that I had for a long time regarding hyphenation.
Some words at the end of a line cannot be hyphenated and are longer then the columnwidth allows, e.g. "tree". Why does the engine not break the word into a new line? Same with hyphens that overlap the end of the line.
