Summary description: Simple commands for drawing customisable dice
Announcement text:
customdice is a package for LaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeTeX that provides functionality for drawing dice. The aim is to provide highly-customisable but simple-to-use commands, allowing: - adding custom text to dice faces; - control over colouring; - control over sizing. I've long struggled to find a dice package I fully like. I have been using epsdice, but it only offers white or black standard dice and I found I wanted to draw dice with other text on the faces so I wrote this package which draws the dice in TikZ and offers lots of customisation around what is displayed on the dice face, colour and size.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/customdice More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/customdice
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .
