How to add minus and equal sign in this picture?
I would put the Blocks
in math mode and use \vcenter
:
Note:
- I added the missing
%
following\end{tikzpicture}
.
Code:
\documentclass[border=2mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{calc,patterns}
\newcommand\Blocks[3][\relax]{% usage \Blocks[cols]{rows}{list of shaded cells}
\begin{tikzpicture}[line join=miter,xshift=1.5cm, baseline]
\def\colsForBlocks{#2}
\ifx#1\relax\relax\def\rowsForBlocks{\colsForBlocks}
\else\def\rowsForBlocks{#1}
\fi
% draw the grid
\foreach \row in {0,...,\rowsForBlocks} {
\draw[thick](\row,0)-- ++(0,\colsForBlocks);
}
\foreach \col in {0,...,\colsForBlocks} {
\draw[thick](0,\col)-- ++(\rowsForBlocks,0);
}
% shade the specified boxes
\foreach \cell in {#3} {
\draw[thick,pattern = north east lines,line join=miter] \cell rectangle ++ (-1,-1);
}
\end{tikzpicture}% <-- was missing
}
\begin{document}
$
\vcenter{\hbox{\Blocks[3]{2}{(1,2),(2,2),(3,2)}}}
- \vcenter{\hbox{\Blocks[3]{2}{(1,2),(2,2)}}}
= \vcenter{\hbox{\Blocks[3]{2}{(1,2)}}}
$
\end{document}
The simple figure should be drawn by simple code.
\documentclass[tikz,border=5mm]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{patterns}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[line join=round,pattern=north east lines]
\def\a{.6} % distance between blocks
\begin{scope}
\fill (0,1) rectangle (2,2);
\draw (0,0) grid (3,2);
\end{scope}
\begin{scope}[shift={(3+\a,0)}]
\fill (0,1) rectangle (1,2);
\draw (0,0) grid (3,2);
\end{scope}
\begin{scope}[shift={(-3-\a,0)}]
\fill (0,1) rectangle (3,2);
\draw (0,0) grid (3,2);
\end{scope}
\path (3+.5*\a,1) node{$=$} (-.5*\a,1) node{$-$};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
