Better use of rounded corners with tikz on draw[->]












5















I have this code:



% !TeX encoding = UTF-8


documentclass[utf8]{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{matrix}
usetikzlibrary{positioning}

newcommand{multilinks}[3]{foreach noeud in {#1} {draw[<-, rounded corners] (#2.west) -| ++(-#3em,0em) |- (noeud.east);}}

begin{document}
begin{figure}[htp]
centering
tikzset{
basic/.style={draw, rounded corners=2pt, thick, text width=8em, align=flush center, node distance=2em},
}
begin{tikzpicture}
matrix[row sep=2em, column sep=4em, every node/.style={basic}] {
node(n1){Text}; & node(n3){another text}; \
node(n2){one thing}; & node(n4){again text}; \
};
multilinks{n1,n2}{n3}{3}
multilinks{n1}{n4}{1}
end{tikzpicture}
end{figure}

end{document}


It gives me this result:





As you can see, a curve is weird. How can I fix it?



Here's the result I want:

          A slight change in the definition of multilinks and the list #1 in the first multilinks:



          documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
          usetikzlibrary{matrix,positioning}

          newcommand{multilinks}[3]{
          foreach noeud in {#1} {
          draw[<-, rounded corners] (#2.west) -- ++(-#3 em,0em) |- (noeud.east);
          }
          }

          begin{document}
          tikzset{
          basic/.style={
          draw,
          rounded corners=2pt,
          thick,
          text width=8em,
          align=flush center,
          node distance=2em
          }
          }
          begin{tikzpicture}
          fontsize{8}{9} selectfont

          node(n2){one thing}; & node(n4){again text}; \
          };
          multilinks{n2}{n3}{3}
          multilinks{n1}{n4}{1}
          end{tikzpicture}

          In case you want to keep the original way, the definition of multilinks is a bit more complicated:



          documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
          usetikzlibrary{matrix,positioning}

          newcommand{multilinks}[3]{
          begin{scope}[x=1em,y=1em]
          newdimenxend
          newdimenyend
          path (#2.west);
          pgfgetlastxy{xend}{yend}
          foreach i in {#1} {
          newdimenxstart
          newdimenystart
          path (i.east);
          pgfgetlastxy{xstart}{ystart}
          coordinate (1) at ({xend-#3 em},ystart);
          coordinate (2) at ({xend-#3 em},yend);
          ifdimystart=yend
          draw[->] (i.east)--(#2.west);
          else
          draw[->,rounded corners] (i.east)--(1)--(2)--(#2.west);
          fi
          }
          end{scope}
          }

          begin{document}
          tikzset{
          basic/.style={
          draw,
          rounded corners=2pt,
          thick,
          text width=8em,
          align=flush center,
          node distance=2em
          }
          }
          begin{tikzpicture}
          fontsize{8}{9} selectfont
          matrix[row sep=2em, column sep=4em, every node/.style={basic}] {
          node(n1){Text}; & node(n3){another text}; \
          node(n2){one thing}; & node(n4){again text}; \
          };
          multilinks{n1,n2}{n3}{3}

          end{tikzpicture}

          end{document}


          enter image description here



          We have to add an ifdim because TikZ is quite confused when it is commanded to draw a rounded corners path from point A to point A (i.e. two identical points):



          documentclass[tikz,margin=3mm]{standalone}
          begin{document}
          begin{tikzpicture}[y=0.2cm]
          draw[rounded corners] (0,0) --(1,0) --(1,0)--(2,0) ; % Some bugs?
          draw[rounded corners] (0,-1)--(1,-1)-- (2,-1);
          draw[rounded corners] (0,-2)-- (2,-2);
          end{tikzpicture}

          We have to add an ifdim because TikZ is quite confused when it is commanded to draw a rounded corners path from point A to point A (i.e. two identical points):



          documentclass[tikz,margin=3mm]{standalone}
          begin{document}
          begin{tikzpicture}[y=0.2cm]
          draw[rounded corners] (0,0) --(1,0) --(1,0)--(2,0) ; % Some bugs?
          draw[rounded corners] (0,-1)--(1,-1)-- (2,-1);
          draw[rounded corners] (0,-2)-- (2,-2);
          end{tikzpicture}

          A slight change in the definition of multilinks and the list #1 in the first multilinks:



          documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
          usetikzlibrary{matrix,positioning}

          newcommand{multilinks}[3]{
          foreach noeud in {#1} {
          draw[<-, rounded corners] (#2.west) -- ++(-#3 em,0em) |- (noeud.east);
          }
          }

          begin{document}
          tikzset{
          basic/.style={
          draw,
          rounded corners=2pt,
          thick,
          text width=8em,
          align=flush center,
          node distance=2em
          }
          }
          begin{tikzpicture}
          fontsize{8}{9} selectfont
          matrix[row sep=2em, column sep=4em, every node/.style={basic}] {
          node(n1){Text}; & node(n3){another text}; \
          node(n2){one thing}; & node(n4){again text}; \
          };
          multilinks{n2}{n3}{3}
          multilinks{n1}{n4}{1}
          end{tikzpicture}

          end{document}


          enter image description here





          Edit



          In case you want to keep the original way, the definition of multilinks is a bit more complicated:



          documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
          usetikzlibrary{matrix,positioning}

          newcommand{multilinks}[3]{
          begin{scope}[x=1em,y=1em]
          newdimenxend
          newdimenyend
          path (#2.west);
          pgfgetlastxy{xend}{yend}
          foreach i in {#1} {
          newdimenxstart
          newdimenystart
          path (i.east);
          pgfgetlastxy{xstart}{ystart}
          coordinate (1) at ({xend-#3 em},ystart);
          coordinate (2) at ({xend-#3 em},yend);
          ifdimystart=yend
          draw[->] (i.east)--(#2.west);
          else
          draw[->,rounded corners] (i.east)--(1)--(2)--(#2.west);
          fi
          }
          end{scope}
          }

          begin{document}
          tikzset{
          basic/.style={
          draw,
          rounded corners=2pt,

          align=flush center,
          node distance=2em
          }
          }
          begin{tikzpicture}
          fontsize{8}{9} selectfont
          matrix[row sep=2em, column sep=4em, every node/.style={basic}] {
