Please provide a new command line parameter to output tikz without the latex preamble

asked Feb 13, 2016 in Closed feature request by choppsv1 (120 points)

I'm trying to include UML diagrams in org mode beamer (latex) exported documents. The current -tlatex flag outputs a full latex file (i.e., documentclass, usepackage, begin{document} ...) all of those mess up my actual document that this tikz output is being included within.

Please can you provide a new command line parameter to output tikz without the latex preamble.

In the last beta: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13064071/plantuml.jar
we have added a -tlatex:nopreamble flag in the command line (and in the ANT task).

It has not been highly tested, but it seems to work fine.
Tell us if it's what you are expecting!
