Arrow and label positing in a .pic using tikz












2















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:



enter image description here



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

          A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

          Image
          0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{...
