I am using Plots.jl for making plots, but I would like to have my legend, title, labels,… in latex typesetting. With other libraries I know I can just use L"…", but when I run the following code: using Plots plot(0:2,0:2, xlab = L"x") I get the following error: LoadError: UndefVarError: @L_str n…

[image] mkborregaard: xticks Works like a charm, for completeness, my code is now: using Plots using LaTeXStrings p = plot(0:2,0:2, xlab = L"x^2", xticks = ([0,1,2],[L"0", L"1", L"2"])) and my problem has been solved completely. Thanks!

Which backends does this work with?

I have it working on all that I have installed (gr, plotlyjs, pyplot) EDIT: wait, it sometimes fails on plotlyjs, though it works most times. Peculiar.

I am on OS X - I get the same occasionally, but most times it works with plotlyjs(). It is bit strange.

Indeed it is, thanks for the dilligence.

Note: you don’t need the LaTeXStrings package in order to render LaTeX in Plots.jl - it just makes doing so more convenient. You can use LaTeX directly in Plots.jl by manually escaping all the $s, \s, etc.

[image] tparker: LaTeXStrings Hello, how would you use LaTeX in Plots without the LaTeXStrings package ? label="${\bar{fitted}} prices$" or label=L"{\bar{fitted}} prices" would not work… EDIT: Sorry… got it: label="\${\\overline{fitted}} \\thinspace prices\$")

Sorry for the reviving this thread again but I’m struggling to get this right: using Plots, LaTeXStrings plot(rand(100)) title!("This is an alpha: α") # produces ? for alpha title!("This is an alpha: \$\\alpha\$") # produces $ α$ title!(L"This is an alpha: α") …

@mkborregaard The correct capitalization of the package name is LaTeXStrings.
