\section{Through Library}

\label{section-through-library}


\begin{tikzlibrary}{through}
  This library defines keys for creating shapes that go through given
  points. 
\end{tikzlibrary}


\begin{key}{/tikz/circle through=\meta{coordinate}}

  When this key is given as an option to a node, the following
  happens:
  \begin{enumerate}
  \item The |inner sep| and the |outer sep| are set to zero.
  \item The shape is set to |circle|.
  \item The |minimum size| is set such that the circle around the
    center of the node (which is specified using |at|), goes through
    \meta{coordinate}. 
  \end{enumerate}
\begin{codeexample}[]
\begin{tikzpicture}
  \draw[help lines] (0,0) grid (3,2);
  \node (a) at (2,1.5) {$a$};
  \node [draw] at (1,1) [circle through={(a)}] {$c$};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{key}
