TikZ node does not allow line break?












0















I am getting an error when I try to add a line break inside a TikZ node.
Any idea?



The code:



documentclass[12pt,dvipsnames]{article}
usepackage[a4paper, bindingoffset=0.1in, left=1in, right=1in,
top=.51in, bottom=1in, footskip=.25in]{geometry}
usepackage{listings,xcolor,amssymb,tikz,amsmath,enumitem}
usetikzlibrary{shadows.blur, shapes.arrows, shapes.geometric, shapes.misc}
begin{document}
tikzset{decision/.style= {diamond, draw, aspect=2,text badly centered, node
distance=2.5em, inner sep=0pt}}
begin{center}
begin{tikzpicture}
node[decision] (dic) at (0,0) {scriptsize{is $dE<0$}};
node[decision](metro) at (-3,-2) {scriptsize{is\ $rand< e^{-Delta E/k_BT}$}};
end{tikzpicture}
end{center}
end{document}


The Error

You need to add an alignment (such as center) to allow for \ in the node contents.



documentclass[12pt,dvipsnames]{article}
usepackage[a4paper, bindingoffset=0.1in, left=1in, right=1in,
top=.51in, bottom=1in, footskip=.25in]{geometry}
usepackage{listings,xcolor,amssymb,tikz,amsmath,enumitem}

begin{document}
tikzset{decision/.style= {diamond, draw, aspect=2,text badly centered, node
distance=2.5em, inner sep=0pt,font=scriptsize,align=center}}
begin{center}
begin{tikzpicture}
node[decision] (dic) at (0,0) {is $mathrm{d}E<0$};
node[decision](metro) at (-3,-2) {is\ $text{rand}< e^{-Delta E/k_mathrm{B}T}$};
end{tikzpicture}
