tkz-base — for Cartesian coordinate system

Release 4.21c 2024/01/16

Description

The package tkz-base provides some tools like a Cartesian (rectangular) coordinate system to other packages like tkz-euclide or tkz-fct. With this package, you can draw coordinate axis, grids, draw points, the principle is to specify the position of any point in two-dimensional space by an unique couple of coordinates.

You can also placing all of the distribution files in the directory : /texmf/tex/latex/tkz.

How to use it

  • compiles with utf8, pdflatex, lualatex;
  • To use the package tkz-base, place the following lines in the preamble of

your document.

usepackage{tkz-base} (loads TikZ and some tikzlibraries).

To avoid package conflicts, you need to load xcolor before TikZ or tkz-base or tkz-euclide

Documentation

Documentations for tkz-base are available on CTAN and your distribution.

Examples

All examples given in documentation will be stored on my site : http://altermundus.fr as standalone files, ready for compilation.

Other examples, in French, are on my site.

Compatibility

The new version of tkz-base is not fully compatible with the version 3 but the differences are minor
