Arrow and label positing in a .pic using tikz
I am trying to draw a figure, which repeatedly contains a similar type of pictures. Hence I am using .pic
provided by tikz
in the following way:
documentclass[tikz, border=2px]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta, bending, shapes.misc, shapes.geometric}
% define colors and other constants
colorlet{line color}{black!30}
defline thickness{1pt}
% define primitive shapes for the drawing
tikzset{
line/.style={
-, draw=line color, line width=line thickness},
z plus joint/.pic={
draw[black, line width=line thickness, fill=gray!50] (0,0)
circle (0.5);
draw[black, line width=line thickness, fill=white] (0,0) circle (0.3);
draw[line width=2pt, red, -{Triangle[bend, length=6pt, width=8pt]}]
(270:0.4) arc (270:150:0.4);
draw[latex-,blue, shorten <=2pt] (-0.5, 0.5) -- ++ (-0.5, 0.5)
node[above=2pt, black]{#1};
},
z minus joint/.pic={
pic[yscale=-1, rotate=180] {z plus joint=#1};},
}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[node distance=2cm]
path[line] (0, 0) pic {z plus joint=1} --
(2, 0) pic {z minus joint=3} --
(4, 0) pic {z minus joint=2} --
(4, 2) pic {z plus joint=4} --
(4, 4) pic {z minus joint=6};
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
Please see below the generated figure:
I need the following two types of orientation for arrows:
- Left side titled arrow
- Right side titled arrow
I am looking for a way to provide an extra argument to the pic which can decide the orientation of the arrow. For example, see the following pseudo code:
begin{tikzpicture}[node distance=2cm]
path[line] (0, 0) pic {z plus joint={1}{right}} --
(2, 0) pic {z minus joint={3}{right}} --
(4, 0) pic {z minus joint={2}{left}} --
(4, 2) pic {z plus joint={4}{left}} --
(4, 4) pic {z minus joint={6}{left}};
end{tikzpicture}
PS: Since the orientation has only two possible values, i.e., left
and right
, we can have left
as default
