label shifting behavior in tikz vs tikz-cd

I have a tikz picture that has labels, and the labels are in the correct place. However when I put the {tikzpicture} inside a {tikzcd} environment, the position of the labels shifts noticeably up, and they are no longer in the position I want. It would be easy enough to solve this by not using the {tikzcd} environment, but I want this picture to be part of a larger commuting diagram. So my question is,

How do I force the labels to stay in the same place when I place a {tikzpicture} inside a {tikzcd}?

I've included a stripped-down version of my code below.

documentclass[11pt]{amsart}

usepackage{fouriernc} % Fourier fonts instead of Computer Modern

usepackage{PageSetup}      % general setup

usepackage{tikz, tikz-cd}



% art style for graphs

newcommand*{bigradius}{2.7em} % radius of a circle-shaped graph

newcommand*{biggerradius}{6.0em} % radius of a really big circle-shaped graph

newcommand*{dist}{4em} % separation between nodes of a line-shaped graph

newcommand*{distshort}{3.25em} % separation between nodes of a line-shaped graph

newcommand*{labeloffset}{1em} % spacing between the edges and their labels

newcommand*{vertexlabeloffset}{1.5em} % spacing between the vertices and their labels

newcommand*{littleradius}{.4em} % radius of the vertices

newcommand*{straightpathwidth}{.17em} % width of a straight path (needs to be slightly thicker than a curved path)

newcommand*{curvedpathwidth}{.14em}

Welcome to TeX.SX! Nesting a tikzpicture in another one is highly unrecommended.

Thanks for the pointer! I seem to be getting the same problem with the subfigure environment as well. Is there a good environment for positioning several pictures with arrows between them, or captions below, that doesn't come highly unrecommended?

Yes, subfigure is also deprecated, but the strange behavior is explained by nesting tikzpictures, as @egreg pointed out. If you put the ikzpicture into as savebox, the issues will disappear.

How do I force the labels to stay in the same place when I place a {tikzpicture} inside a {tikzcd}?

I've included a stripped-down version of my code below.

documentclass[11pt]{amsart}

usepackage{fouriernc} % Fourier fonts instead of Computer Modern

usepackage{PageSetup}      % general setup

usepackage{tikz, tikz-cd}



% art style for graphs

newcommand*{bigradius}{2.7em} % radius of a circle-shaped graph

newcommand*{biggerradius}{6.0em} % radius of a really big circle-shaped graph

newcommand*{dist}{4em} % separation between nodes of a line-shaped graph

newcommand*{distshort}{3.25em} % separation between nodes of a line-shaped graph

newcommand*{labeloffset}{1em} % spacing between the edges and their labels

newcommand*{vertexlabeloffset}{1.5em} % spacing between the vertices and their labels

newcommand*{littleradius}{.4em} % radius of the vertices

newcommand*{straightpathwidth}{.17em} % width of a straight path (needs to be slightly thicker than a curved path)

newcommand*{curvedpathwidth}{.14em}

    Correct:

Thanks for the pointer! I seem to be getting the same problem with the subfigure environment as well. Is there a good environment for positioning several pictures with arrows between them, or captions below, that doesn't come highly unrecommended?
– Cary

Yes, subfigure is also deprecated, but the strange behavior is explained by nesting tikzpictures, as @egreg pointed out. If you put the ikzpicture into as savebox, the issues will disappear.

Welcome to TeX.SE! As pointed out by @egreg, and as is explained in more detail in this thread, you should try to avoid nesting tikzpictures.

I am assuming now that you want to make the tikzpicture part of a commutative diagram. Then, as suggested here, you may want to put the tikzpicture into a savebox, such that is safe from the pgf keys of the ambient tikzpicture.
