Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How to change tikZ matrix height

[dmuthu_cse]

Hello friends,

I have drawn a table using tikz, according to your advice. But now i need to increase the size of the columns and rows. But after increasing the size, the lines are not exactly cutting the table elements as they have gone down.

Please do help, i am enclosing the code,

Code: Select all

\begin{center}
\small
      \begin{tikzpicture}

    \matrix (magic) [%
      matrix of nodes,
      text width=6.5mm,
		text height=3mm,
      text badly centered
    ]
{%
0 & 6 & 11\\
0 & 3 & 4\\
0 & 0 & 0\\
    };
    % striking out lines
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-1.north) -- (magic-3-1.south);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-3-1.west) -- (magic-3-3.east);
    % horizontal lines of the table
    \foreach \i in {1,2,3}
      \draw[thin,black] (magic-\i-1.north west) -- (magic-\i-3.north east);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-3-1.south west) -- (magic-3-3.south east);
    % vertical lines of the table
    \foreach \j in {1,2,3}
      \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-\j.north west) -- (magic-3-\j.south west);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-3.north east) -- (magic-3-3.south east);
  \end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}

Note: the horizontal cutting line, is not going through 0 0 0 as the vertical line goes perfectly.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Muthu.

But you didn't formulate your question according to our advice [1]. Regarding your problem the pgf/tikZ manual tells you the details (keyword »matrix library«).

Hello thorsten,

Very sorry for the previous confusing post. I have gone through the manual but still i didnt get the key point.

Now i have elobrated my problem with two tables the first table is facing problem, while the second one is correct but the cell width and height to be increased.

In first table the table elements are aligned bottom, but it should be aligned center. Please help me in this regard. I am herewith attaching the code.

Code: Select all

Hi,

one possible solution is to use the text depth=<length> option to compensate the effect of text height; an example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[b5paper,11pt]{book}
\usepackage{fancybox,array,amsmath,ulem}
\usepackage{tikz-inet,pgf}
\usetikzlibrary{matrix}
\begin{document}

% this is correct but the cell width and height should be increased
\begin{center}
\small
      \begin{tikzpicture}

    \matrix (magic) [%
      matrix of nodes,
      text width=7mm,
      text height=6mm,
      text depth=8mm,
      text badly centered
    ]
{% 

\sout{0.5} & \sout{0} & \sout{0} & \sout{0} & \sout{0} & \sout{0}\\
\sout{0} & \sout{0} & \sout{0.5} & \sout{1} & \sout{2.0} & \sout{0}\\
1.0 & 1.5 & 1.0 & 3 & 3.5 & \sout{0}\\
1.5 & 2.0 & 1.0 & 3 & 3.5 & \sout{0}\\
2.0 & 2.0 & 2.0 & 3 & 5.0 & \sout{0}\\
4.0 & 4.0 & 4.0 & 4 & 5.0 & \sout{0}\\
    };
    % striking out lines
\draw[thin,black] (magic-1-6.north) -- (magic-6-6.south);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-1.west) -- (magic-1-6.east);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-2-1.west) -- (magic-2-6.east);
    % horizontal lines of the table
    \foreach \i in {1,2,3,4,5,6}
      \draw[thin,black] (magic-\i-1.north west) -- (magic-\i-6.north east);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-6-1.south west) -- (magic-6-6.south east);
    % vertical lines of the table
    \foreach \j in {1,2,3,4,5,6}
      \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-\j.north west) -- (magic-6-\j.south west);
    \draw[thin,black] (magic-1-6.north east) -- (magic-6-6.south east);
  \end{tikzpicture}

Hello gmedina,

Thanks for your response. I am happy now, now the table is looking good.

Thanks again for saving me.
