picture package for LaTeX
Version: 2026-03-07 v2.0
There are macro and environment arguments that expect numbers that will internally be multiplicated with unitlength. This package extends the syntax of these arguments that dimens with calculation support can be added for these arguments.
Most of the functionality is already by provided by a current LaTeX and so by default the package is disabled and does nothing. Support for the syntax of the calc package can be forced by loading the package with the option calc.
