[IPython-dev] Problems with tikzmagic and svg output

[Michael Kraus]

Hi,

Thanks for the fix. However, while svg works fine now, it seems that png and jpg output is broken.

I inserted a switch to set the isolated tag only for svg output. The updated files can be found at

http://www.ipp.mpg.de/~mkraus/python/tikzmagic.py
http://www.ipp.mpg.de/~mkraus/python/tikzmagic_test.ipynb

The latest version also includes the possibility to specify TikZ libraries.


Cheers,
Michael

Perhaps some kind of widget which runs nbconvert and selects the output from one cell would be a solution. For this specific tikz magic, the easiest thing was to add an extra argument to save a copy of the file.
