I'm fairly familiar with using Tikz. I've used it to make simple logos before. Now, I'd like to create this diagram, which is a little more complicated:    Does anyone have any advice on what the best way to do this would be?  I'm aware that it's very easy to use the image file in my output (\includegraphics). However, I'd like to make it in Tikz if possible, for infinite scalability.  BTW, the blue is #080f6a.

Is it feasible to convert math in a picture, say written by hand, into LaTeX?   For example, I'd deem it faster to write down (de novo)  a 10 x 10 matrix with long, complex entries, rather than typing it in LaTeX or MathType. If I then take a picture or scan my writing, how can it be rendered or transformed into LaTeX?

I am interested in outputting  this graph in  latex using tikz:    So far I got this:    and my tikz code is   \begin{tikzpicture}     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (A) at (0,0) {A};     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (B) at (0,3) {B};     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (C) at (2.5,4) {C};     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (D) at (2.5,1) {D};     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (E) at (2.5,-3) {E};     \node[shape=circle,draw=black] (F) at (5,3) {F} ;      \path [-&gt;] (A) edge node[left] {$5$} (B);     \path [-&gt;](B) edge node[left] {$3$} (C);     \path [-&gt;](A) edge node[left] {$4$} (D);     \path [-&gt;](D) edge node[left] {$3$} (C);     \path [-&gt;](A) edge node[right] {$3$} (E);     \path [-&gt;](D) edge node[left] {$3$} (E);     \path [-&gt;](D) edge node[top] {$3$} (F);     \path [-&gt;](C) edge node[top] {$5$} (F);     \path [-&gt;](E) edge node[right] {$8$} (F);    \end{tikzpicture}   I want to know how to draw the arc between nodes B and E and also thicker  arcs with their lengths in center. Any help is appreciated

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks,  Brian

I need to make this drawing in TikZ, but unfortunately I'm having a hard time getting started.    It seems there are no pre-packaged options available for this. A first attempt, based on code examples from TeX.SX is found below, but it lacks the 3D effect on the the Helix and the base pairs look rather simplistic  \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usepackage{pgfplots} \pgfplotsset{compat=newest} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis} \addplot3+[domain=0:4*pi, samples=100, samples y=0,no marks, smooth, draw=red](   {x/(3*pi)},   {cos(deg(x))},   {sin(deg(x))}  )   coordinate[pos=0.3]  (a1)  coordinate[pos=0.3]  (b1)  coordinate[pos=0.9]  (c1) ; \addplot3+[domain=0:4*pi, samples=100, samples y=0,no marks, smooth, draw=green](   {x/(3*pi)},   {cos(deg(x+pi))},   {sin(deg(x+pi))}  )   coordinate[pos=0.3]  (a2) coordinate[pos=0.6]  (b2) coordinate[pos=0.9]  (c2) ; \draw (a1)--(a2); \draw (b1)--(b2); \draw (c1)--(c2); \end{axis}  \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}

What is the best way and process someone does to go about making a logo like that? I have seen people draw a logo and then use “image trace” but is that what people typically do? If they don’t use “image trace” but use the pen tool for example, how do you make it look like someone drew it? How do you get the lines to look like that? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I want to create a simple figure where images are connected with arrows. Here is what I did:  \begin{tikzpicture} \node[](A) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{a}}; \node[right=1mm of A](B) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{b}}; \draw[-&gt;] (A) to (B); \end{tikzpicture}     But I want the arrow to start and end right at the images with no space between. How can I do that?

I have recently created a logo. I have seen an online trend of showing off a logo in a realistic environment, illustrating possible use cases of the logo.  An example of this can be seen here, with the original logo at the bottom and a 3D mockup at the top:    How can I create such a mockup?

I need draw some picture, but I don't know how do that.   First, the simple graph with basic shapes, arrow,....   And then, draw a picture with math symbol or equation in math environment. Like that:   Please help me draw two picture. And if you don't mind, please show me some tools which can help me draw easily and generate to latex code, or some document help me learnt quickly. Thanks for your help

I was trying to get the symbol of the old .  I'm actually interested in the laurel leaves, and not so much in the banner per se.  What I would like to have is something like this (in Tikz, as oppose to simply \includegraphics).  With the possibility to change the stylish A to any other simple roman letter.    I'm a complete newbie with TikZ, and even though I know this question sounds like do this for me, I would really appreciate if someone could at least throw in an sketch where to start.

Are there any   editors for ? Perhaps something similar to    but for PGF/TikZ?   If there is no WYSIWYG editor for this tandem, is there one perhaps that allows the user to easily generate PGF/TikZ templates?  Alternatively, how can I most easily generate PFG/TikZ code from a visual conception? Do people mostly code their PGF/TikZ graphics from scratch?

Is there some package to draw nice RDF graphs, such as the one below (taken from )?  Can such a graph (with the same style) be produced in TikZ?

I want to make various copies of a graph in tikz. The graph I want has 10 vertices. But only has the edges between the vertices a_i,a_(i+1),t,b.  I would like to automatically create 8 copies of this graph. and draw them. I just don't know how to code it. Here is my current code, but it adds all of the edges to the same copy of the graph:  \begin{tikzpicture} [main_node/.style={circle,fill=blue!20,draw,minimum size=2em,inner sep=3pt]}] \node[main_node] (8) at (0:0.5) {b}; \node[main_node] (9) at (180:0.5) {t}; \foreach \x in {0,1,...,7}     \node[main_node] (\x) at (360/8*\x:2) {$a_{\x}$}; \foreach \x in {0,1,...,7}{     \pgfmathsetmacro{\y}{int(mod(\x+1,8))}     \path[draw,thick] (\x) edge node {} (8);     \path[draw,thick] (\x) edge node {} (9);     \path[draw,thick] (\x) edge node {} (\y);     \path[draw,thick] (8) edge node {} (9);     \path[draw,thick] (8) edge node {} (\y);     \path[draw,thick] (9) edge node {} (\y);    }   I want each of the edge sets to be drawn seperately.

I have been working on logo for my department and I have the following code. The problem is that whenever I compile the diagram seems to be larger than the actual logo. I do not know what is the problem.

I have created some TikZ code to produce the diagram below (slightly simplified). This is my first real shot at TikZ and its taken me about 8 hours now to get this far. But I don't really begrudge the time, time spent learning is time well spent.  It is loosely based on .  I would like to have a different (variable) number of nodes in each layer, and would like to maintain the connection.  My current idea was to have a list of lists like {{1..3},{1..5},{1..7},{1..4},{1..3}} then I guesss i could use a nested for-each off the index. But that has 2 problems: I would lose my layer number, which I could get around by using count. Secondly, more majorly, I don't seen a good way of knowing how big the next layer is (to make the connections).     \documentclass{article} \usepackage{mathptmx} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{arrows} \usetikzlibrary{calc} \begin{document}   \def\layersep{3.5cm} \def\topnum{5} %\font\nullfont=cmr10 \begin{tikzpicture}[shorten &gt;=1pt,-&gt;,draw=black!50, node distance=\layersep]     \tikzstyle{neuron}=[circle,draw,fill=white!25,minimum size=25pt,inner sep=0pt]     \tikzstyle{bias neuron}=[neuron,dashed]       \foreach \y in {2,...,4}                 \foreach \x in {1,...,5}             \path   node[neuron] (L_\y_\x) at (\x cm,\y*\layersep) {$\sigma(\cdot)$};   %      \foreach  \x in {1,...,5}             \path  node[neuron] (L_1_\x) at (\x cm,1*\layersep) {$x_\x$};      \foreach  \x in {1,...,5}             \path  node[neuron] (L_5_\x) at (\x cm,5*\layersep) {$s_{m}(\cdot)$};       %Add Biases     \foreach \y in {1,...,4}     {         \path node[bias neuron] (B_\y) at (6 cm, 0.55*\layersep+\y*\layersep) {1};         \pgfmathtruncatemacro\nextlayer{\y+1}         \foreach \dest in {1,...,5}             \path (B_\y) edge[dashed] (L_\nextlayer_\dest.south);     }       % Connect every node in the input layer with every node in the     % hidden layer.     \foreach \layer in {1,...,4}         \pgfmathtruncatemacro\nextlayer{\layer+1}         \foreach \source in {1,...,5}             \foreach \dest in {1,...,5}                 \path (L_\layer_\source) edge (L_\nextlayer_\dest);   \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}

I am teaching how to convert from one base to another base, however, I can't find a way to do something like this:    I know little about Tikz, the only thing I have been able to produce is a simple square with a couple of lines over it, so I don't even know where to start. Any suggestions? I don't mind typing all the numbers, what I want to do is to automatize the process of creating the lines.
