In my book, I use both libraries. After Miktex update yesterday evening (circuitikz ver 0.3 pgfplots 1.11), I have problem with compiling following code:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz} % TikZ and PGF picture
\usepackage{circuitikz}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\begin{document}
\begin{circuitikz}
\draw (0,0) to [short, *-] (6,0);
\end{circuitikz}
\end{document}
*Command line listing*:
Package pgfplots Warning: running in backwards compatibility mode (unsuitable
tick labels; missing features). Consider writing \pgfplotsset<compact=1.11> into
your preamble.
!Undefined control sequence.
\pgfmath@multiply@thousand
1.20 (0,0) to [short, *-] (6,0)
I haven't idea where is mistake. When I delete pgfplots package from testin code, it
works fine, but in my book I need both packages. Circuitikz code was used from http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/induction-machine/so I see no reason why it should not work.
compat, notcompact. – Claudio Fiandrino Sep 12 '14 at 10:17\pgfplotsset, try adding the suggested line withcompatrather thancompact. That said, the code compiles fine as is here (but I'm not using MiKTeX). – cfr Sep 14 '14 at 23:03
