% symbol leads to superlong (forever?) compilations












14















This problem occurs when I am trying to improve my answer in this question.





You can compile this code very well



documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.text}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
sffamily
node (a) at (-2,0) {probability};
node[align=center] (b) at (2,0) {percent\change};
draw[-latex,postaction={decorate,decoration={raise=1ex,text along path,text align=center,text={multiply by 100}}}] (a) to[out=60,in=120] (b);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}


enter image description here



but don't compile this code!



documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.text}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
sffamily
node (a) at (-2,0) {probability};
node[align=center] (b) at (2,0) {percent\change};
draw[-latex,postaction={decorate,decoration={raise=1ex,text along path,text align=center,text={multiply by 100%}}}] (a) to[out=60,in=120] (b);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}


I have been waiting for more than 200 seconds



enter image description here



Why? I just want to add a percent symbol (%)!



I think TikZ understood my % as %, but removing the throws many errors.



I even used siunitx, but got the same result.



documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.text}
usepackage{siunitx}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
sffamily
node (a) at (-2,0) {probability};
node[align=center] (b) at (2,0) {percent\change};
draw[-latex,postaction={decorate,decoration={raise=1ex,text along path,text align=center,text={multiply by SI{100}{percent}}}}] (a) to[out=60,in=120] (b);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}


So, what's going on?

    Very nice your 2nd image: How do I find the compilation time? Do you have any specific software where you can see the build time? My regards.

  • @Sebastiano I use VS Code. The LaTeX Workshop extension gives me a link to see the compilation process, which I don't use really often, but it is very useful in strange situations, like this situation.

    The infinite loop is triggered by any unexpandable control sequence token, even by relax (except implicit character tokens that raise errors). Bracing the token is the right way to go.

You only need to wrap % into {...}.

    @JouleV for that I'd have to dig through the internals of TikZ, which isn't something I feel like right now, sorry.

You can make this work by changing the % character to not be the comment character anymore using catcode:



documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{bending,decorations.text}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
sffamily
node (a) at (-2,0) {probability};
node[align=center] (b) at (2,0) {percent\change};
begin{scope}
catcode`%=12
draw[-latex,postaction={decorate,decoration={raise=1ex,text along path,text
align=center,text={multiply by 100%}}}] (a) to[out=60,in=120] (b);
end{scope}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
