Chapter 9 Utilities and Basic Level Commands

This chapter documents commands which provide access to more basic elements of pgfplots. Most of them are closely related to the basic level of pgf, especially various point commands which are specific to an axis. Some of them are general purpose utilities like loops.

However, most elements in this section are only interesting for advanced users – and perhaps only for special cases.
