How to move the pgf-spectra boxes in a TikZ
I am trying to draw a diagram that looks approximately like this:
The red boxes are the items I would like to add to the diagram. They represent spectra lines that can be generated using the pgf-spectra package (https://ctan.org/pkg/pgf-spectra?lang=en). When I try to use a scope to move the box like in my not working example below, the spectra box is not moved. I was wondering if it were possible to move the spectra boxes at all, either in the document or by changing code in the package .sty files
My MNWE:
documentclass{standalone}
usepackage{tikz}
usepackage{pgf-spectra}
usetikzlibrary{decorations.pathmorphing}
tikzset{snake it/.style={decorate, decoration=snake}}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
draw[-latex] (0,0) ++ (60:1.5) arc (60:120:1.5);
draw[-latex] (0,0) ++ (-120:1.5) arc (-120:-60:1.5);
draw[snake it,blue,-latex,thick] (0,1) -- (-4,1);
draw[snake it,red,-latex,thick] (0,-1) -- (-4,-1);
draw[snake it,-latex,thick] (-1,0) -- (-4,0);
draw[fill=yellow!50] (0,0) circle (1);
% -- this part below is what I want to move but it does not behave correctly
begin{scope}{xshift=-4cm,yshift=1cm}
pgfspectra[width=5cm]
end{scope}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
Here is the output it renders:
tikz-pgf

The package is actually nesting tikzpictures which may explain odd behavior.
