Graphic Tips to save time

Thesis graphic chart

As you know, when your supervisor asks you to change the colors of the figures once everything is written, it's already too late. That's why it's important to define the graphic charter of your documents well in advance. This will save you precious drafting time, especially if your field of study is graphics (CAD, AR, VR, geometry...).
A color palette can be defined from sites like Adobe color, or directly from your favorite programming language.
Attached is a python script I personally use to define my color palette, which I then use in all my graphics.

Writing in Latex

You're probably familiar with the Latex language and its sidekick Overleaf, which lets you edit Latex online. If your graphics come from Powerpoint, you can export your figures as .pdf files. This allows you to keep your figures vectorized, so that text can be selected in the figures, and the figures are clear, whatever zoom you make on the compiled pdf.
