chartsplot
I was checking this question and this other one, and I was wondering if somebody has a solution to create concentric ring/donut charts
I want to accomplish something like this:
Or more in particular something like this:
Because I want to use it for languages and would like to be able to write "汉语" for Chinese…
Does anybody know of a proper way to do it? Many thanks!
You need to go to TeXShop/Preferences and add the --shell-escape option to the Engine tab as shown here:
After restarting TeXShop, selecting LaTeX from the pull down will automatically have the --shell-escape option enabled.
Alternatively you can also create you own .engine files. An example of this is at Problems with implementing glossary.engine in TeXShop. As egreg commented, with your own custom engine it is clear to you that are enabling --shell-escape, especially if you name it something like LaTeX w ShellEscape.
This will enable --shell-escape but you still need to ensure that you indded have gnuplot installed. As I mentioned in an earlier answer at Generating graphs with gnuplot (Gnuplot, LaTeX and tkz-fct) you should have a look at this gnuplot tutorial and ensure that gnuplot is working.
You can use the error bar functionality and combine two \addplot commands to achieve this.
Here are two styles, min max and avg avgopen that you can apply to two \addplot commands to generate the plots like so:
\pgfplotstableread{
Time AvgOpen Avg Min Max
0 7 8 5 10
1 8 7 6 11
2 6 10 5 15
3 8 9 4 10
}\datatable
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[only marks]
\addplot [min max] table {\datatable};
\addplot [avg avgopen] table {\datatable};
\end{axis}
Full code:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplots, pgfplotstable}
\begin{document}
\pgfplotsset{
min max/.style={
mark=empty,
error bars/.cd,
y dir=plus,
y explicit,
error mark=empty,
/pgfplots/table/.cd,
x=Time,
y=Min,
y error expr=\thisrow{Max}-\thisrow{Min}
},
avg avgopen/.style={
mark=-, mark size=4pt, mark options={xshift=-4pt},
error bars/.cd,
y dir=plus,
y explicit,
error mark=|,
error bar style={draw opacity=0,xshift=4pt},
error mark options={draw opacity=1, mark size=4pt},
/pgfplots/table/.cd,
x=Time,
y=AvgOpen,
y error expr=\thisrow{Avg}-\thisrow{AvgOpen}
}
}
\pgfplotstableread{
Time AvgOpen Avg Min Max
0 7 8 5 10
1 8 7 6 11
2 6 10 5 15
3 8 9 4 10
}\datatable
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[only marks]
\addplot [min max] table {\datatable};
\addplot [avg avgopen] table {\datatable};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Disregarding the recommendations to not use this kind of diagram, it's fairly straightforward to draw those kinds of things, just a matter of drawing some
arcs. I didn't try matching the colors, or making any sort of nice interface.
