Popis: When we use TeX to edit a document, it is sometimes necessary to place the figure of a preferred shape into a suitable position. In this presentation, we propose a method using KeTCindy for this purpose. KeTCindy is a plug-in to Cinderella that converts the procedure to generate geometric shapes into TeX readable code to generate the corresponding image on TeX final output. One merit of using KeTCindy is its interactive character. On the Cinderella screen, a user can control the shape of the figure as desired. When we place the resulting image at the exterior side of text part, simple conversion to TeX graphical image through KeTCindy is sufficient. However, when it is necessary to place it onto the text part, some extra elaboration is necessary to ensure that both the text part and the generated figure are finely balanced. The key idea is making the screen of Cinderella semi-transparent using software named feewhee.
