I’m currently working on a major new version of the datatool package. This may take a while. Please be patient. (Experimental version available for testing.)

Summary datapie fails with Package tikz Error: Cannot parse this coordinate.

Description

On Windows with new installs of TeXLive and MiKTeX, the minimal example based on the documentation has an error that says:

Package tikz Error: Cannot parse this coordinate.

However, on Ubuntu with a older distribution of TeXLive it compiles without error. I only have the issue with datapie so I'm not quite sure how to fix it.

MWE

Download (296B)

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[verbose]{datatool}
\usepackage{datapie}

\DTLloaddb{fruit}{fruit.csv}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}[htbp]
\centering
\DTLpiechart{variable=\quantity}{fruit}{\name=Name,\quantity=Quantity}
\caption{A pie chart}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Evaluation

This will hopefully be fixed in the upcoming v3.0. An experimental version is available for testing.

fruit.csv is the same as in the documentation.
Name,Quantity
"Apples",30
"Pears",25
"Lemons,Limes",40.5
"Peaches",34.5
"Cherries",20

Using the standard package on Ubuntu it works.

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.20 (TeX Live 2019/Debian) (preloaded format=pdflatex 2022.4.11) 8 JUN 2022 11:35

With either of these two on Windows I get the error.

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.24 (MiKTeX 22.3) (preloaded format=pdflatex 2022.6.7) 8 JUN 2022 11:40

Log files on all three indicate the same version of the library:
Package: datatool 2019/09/27 v2.32 (NLCT)
Package: datapie 2019/09/27 v2.32 (NLCT)

It's possible there's been a change in the way tikz parses the co-ordinates. I'll look into it when I've finished the updates pending on glossaries-extra and bib2gls.
