TeX - LaTeX Asked by JE_Muc on July 14, 2021
I’m trying to draw overlapping circles with patterns aka hatches. Overlapping circles are meant to hide underlying circles. This is the way it usually works without patterns, but as soon as I add patterns, the value for fill
seems to be completely ignored.
Is there any way to use patterns
with fill
? Thanks in advance!
documentclass{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{%
shapes.misc, % additional shapes, such as rounded rectangles
positioning, % advanced positioning
patterns, % hatches etc
}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}[%
roundnode/.style={circle, draw=black, fill=yellow!20, thick, inner sep=0em, opacity=1, fill opacity=1, draw opacity=1, font=small},
]
node[roundnode, minimum size=15mm] (nodeA) at (1, 0) {A};
node[roundnode, minimum size=15mm, fill=red!20, pattern=north west lines, pattern color=gray] (nodeB) at (2, 0) {B};
node[roundnode, minimum size=15mm] (nodeC) at (2, 1) {C};
node[roundnode, minimum size=15mm, pattern=north east lines, pattern color=gray] (nodeD) at (2, -1) {D};
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
You can use postaction
to achieve the desired effect. Please note also that there is patterns.meta
which is an arguably more convenient way to add pattern (but you will still need a postaction
or declare a filled pattern).

node[roundnode, minimum size=15mm,
postaction={pattern=north east lines, pattern color=gray}] (nodeD) at (2, -1) {D};
