The exact way +this curve looks can be influenced via a number of options. + +\begin{key}{/tikz/curve to} + Specifies that the |to path| should be a curve. This curve will leave the + start coordinate at a certain angle, which can be specified using the |out| + option. It reaches the target coordinate also at a certain angle, which is + specified using the |in| option. The control points of the curve are at a + certain distance that is computed in different ways, depending on which + options are set. + + All of the following options implicitly cause the |curve to| style to be + installed. + + \begin{key}{/tikz/out=\meta{angle}} + The angle at which the curve leaves the start coordinate. If the start + coordinate is a node, the start coordinate is the point on the border + of the node at the given \meta{angle}. The control point will, thus, + lie at a certain distance in the direction \meta{angle} from the start + coordinate. + % +\begin{codeexample}[] +\begin{tikzpicture}[out=45,in=135] + \draw (0,0) to (1,0) + (0,0) to (2,0) + (0,0) to (3,0); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/in=\meta{angle}} + The angle at which the curve reaches the target coordinate. + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/relative=\meta{true or false} (default true)} + This option tells \tikzname\ whether the |in| and |out| angles should + be considered absolute or relative. Absolute means that an |out| angle + of 30$^\circ$ means that the curve leaves the start coordinate at an + angle of 30$^\circ$ relative to the paper (unless, of course, further + transformations have been installed). A \emph{relative} angle is, by + comparison, measured relative to a straight line from the start + coordinate to the target coordinate. Thus, a relative angle of + 30$^\circ$ means that the curve will bend to the left from the line + going straight from the start to the target. For the target, the + relative coordinate is measured in the same manner, namely relative to + the line going from the start to the target. Thus, an angle of + 150$^\circ$ means that the curve will reach target coming slightly from + the left. + % +\begin{codeexample}[] +\begin{tikzpicture}[out=45,in=135,relative] + \draw (0,0) to (1,0) + to (2,1) + to (2,2); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + +\begin{codeexample}[] +\begin{tikzpicture}[out=90,in=90,relative] + \node [circle,draw] (a) at (0,0) {a}; + \node [circle,draw] (b) at (1,1) {b}; + \node [circle,draw] (c) at (2,2) {c}; + + \path (a) edge (b) + edge (c); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/bend left=\meta{angle} (default \normalfont last value)} + This option sets |out=|\meta{angle}|,in=|$180-\meta{angle}$|,relative|. + If no \meta{angle} is given, the last given |bend left| or |bend right| + angle is used. + % +\begin{codeexample}[preamble={\usetikzlibrary{automata,positioning}}] +\begin{tikzpicture}[shorten >=1pt,node distance=2cm,on grid] + \node[state,initial] (q_0) {$q_0$}; + \node[state] (q_1) [right=of q_0] {$q_1$}; + \node[state,accepting](q_2) [right=of q_1] {$q_2$}; + + \path[->] (q_0) edge node [above] {0} (q_1) + edge [loop above] node {1} () + edge [bend left] node [above] {1} (q_2) + edge [bend right] node [below] {0} (q_2) + (q_1) edge node [above] {1} (q_2); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + +\begin{codeexample}[] +\begin{tikzpicture} + \foreach \angle in {0,45,...,315} + \node[rectangle,draw=black!50] (\angle) at (\angle:2) {\angle}; + + \foreach \from/\to in {0/45,45/90,90/135,135/180, + 180/225,225/270,270/315,315/0} + \path (\from) edge [->,bend right=22,looseness=0.8] (\to) + edge [<-,bend left=22,looseness=0.8] (\to); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/bend right=\meta{angle} (default \normalfont last value)} + Works like the |bend left| option, only the bend is to the other side. + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/bend angle=\meta{angle}} + Sets the angle to be used by the |bend left| or |bend right|, but + without actually selecting the |curve to| or the |relative| option. + This is useful for globally specifying a |bend angle| for a whole + picture. + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/looseness=\meta{number} (initially 1)} + This number specifies how ``loose'' the curve will be. In detail, the + following happens: \tikzname\ computes the distance between the start + and the target coordinate (if the start and/or target coordinate are + nodes, the distance is computed between the points on their border). + This distance is then multiplied by a fixed factor and also by the + factor \meta{number}. The resulting distance, let us call it $d$, is + then used as the distance of the control points from the start and + target coordinates. + + The fixed factor has been chosen in such a way that if \meta{number} is + |1|, if the |in| and |out| angles differ by 90$\circ$, then a quarter + circle results: + % +\begin{codeexample}[] +\tikz \draw (0,0) to [out=0,in=-90] (1,1); +\tikz \draw (0,0) to [out=0,in=-90,looseness=0.5] (1,1); +\end{codeexample} + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/out looseness=\meta{number}} + Specifies the looseness factor for the out distance only. + \end{key} + + \begin{key}{/tikz/in looseness=\meta{number}} + Specifies the looseness factor for the in distance only. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/min distance=\meta{distance}} + If the computed distance for the start and target coordinates are below + \meta{distance}, then \meta{distance} is used instead. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/max distance=\meta{distance}} + If the computed distance for the start and target coordinates are above + \meta{distance}, then \meta{distance} is used instead. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/out min distance=\meta{distance}} + The minimum distance set only for the start coordinate. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/out max distance=\meta{distance}} + The maximum distance set only for the start coordinate. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/in min distance=\meta{distance}} + The minimum distance set only for the target coordinate. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/in max distance=\meta{distance}} + The maximum distance set only for the target coordinate. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/distance=\meta{distance}} + Set the minimum and maximum distance to the same value \meta{distance}. + Note that this causes any computed distance $d$ to be ignored and + \meta{distance} to be used instead. + % +\begin{codeexample}[] +\begin{tikzpicture}[out=45,in=135,distance=1cm] + \draw (0,0) to (1,0) + (0,0) to (2,0) + (0,0) to (3,0); +\end{tikzpicture} +\end{codeexample} + % + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/out distance=\meta{distance}} + Sets the minimum and maximum out distance. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/in distance=\meta{distance}} + Sets the minimum and maximum in distance. + \end{key} + % + \begin{key}{/tikz/out control=\meta{coordinate}} + This option causes the \meta{coordinate} to be used as the start + control point.
