#317 I do not know the key '/tikz/hyper/.forward to'

[Edi Weitz]

[Hoping this is the right place to ask such a question...]

I was trying to use the new graph drawing facility of TikZ 3.0. I'm using MikTeX 2.9 with GNU Emacs and AucTeX on Win7. When compiling the following example file

\documentclass[tikz,border=10pt]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{graphdrawing}
\usetikzlibrary{graphs}
\usegdlibrary{trees}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[>=stealth, every node/.style={circle, draw, minimum size=0.75cm}]
\graph [tree layout, grow=down, fresh nodes, level distance=0.5in, sibling distance=0.5in]
    {
        4 -> { 
          3 -> { 1 -> { 5, " " }, 2,2 },
          3 -> { 1, 2, 2 },
          3 -> { 1, 2, 2 }
        } 
    };
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

%% Local Variables:
%% TeX-master: t
%% TeX-PDF-mode: t
%% TeX-engine: luatex
%% coding: utf-8
%% End:

I get the error message

! Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/hyper/.forward to' and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it.

See the pgfkeys package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

l.71 ...appendtoforwardinglist{/tikz/,/tikz/graphs/}

from tikzlibrarygraphdrawing.code.tex. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Edi.

I can't replicate this, following is what I get; I think you are not compiling with LuaTeX which is needed for these libraries.

Hi Edi,

Did you solve the issue? I have the same problem.

Thanks,
Sebastian

[Edi Weitz]

Hi Sebastian,

I "solved" it by completely uninstalling MiKTeX and reinstalling from scratch. Also, the new installation was "only for this user" while the old one was for all users. I still don't know what the reason for the problem was but now it works.

HTH,
Edi.

[Sebastian Souyris]

Thank for your suggestion, Edi. I just did the same and now it works.

Sounds as if it was a pure installation problem. Closing issue.
