Alignment of various blocks in tikz












8















As you can see the left side of the 3 lower blocks are moved to the right while keeping their right sides aligned with the right side of the first block.

I'm using the following code:

Code explanation:




  • I change minimum width to 5em in the three lower nodes.

  • However, as the nodes are centered, I shift the first one of the three nodes. The other two are automatically shifted correctly.

    • However, as the nodes are centered, I shift the first one of the three nodes. The other two are automatically shifted correctly.
