Problem drawing boxes with arrows in tikZ
Announcing the arrival of Valued Associate #679: Cesar Manara
Planned maintenance scheduled April 17/18, 2019 at 00:00UTC (8:00pm US/Eastern)TikZ node placement and arrow drawingHow to define the default vertical distance between nodes?Computing the rectangle encompassing a node and a pointNumerical conditional within tikz keys?Input/Output Nodes - Specification and Description LanguageTikZ: Drawing an arc from an intersection to an intersectionHow to prevent rounded and duplicated tick labels in pgfplots with fixed precision?Drawing rectilinear curves in Tikz, aka an Etch-a-Sketch drawingLine up nested tikz enviroments or how to get rid of themHow to draw a square and its diagonals with arrows?
Could someone, whenever it's possible, post a minimal tikZ example to draw this? I also would like to put an "R" inside the upper box. This is mi code so far (I know, it's a mess):

Are you a kind of wizard with TeX? I must admit that I'm impressed. I read up on tikZ but it is still hard for me. So, thank you for giving me a hand with this rather tough Tex world!

@naveganteX I'm not yet a "wizard" with either TikZ or LaTeX. I'm a complete novice in TeX :D There are so many TeXperts out there, but I am not one of them, of course. I don't even know anything about TikZ 3D yet (it is in my ever to-do list)

I happen to think that you're pretty good at both, tikz and Tex. Regarding tikZ 3d, I have been wanting to plot those 3D histograms/bar chart for so long. But at the moment, it is just an illusion!

Here is an overkill solution that defines a new pics
"shape" (see section 18.2 of the 3.1.1 tikz manual),together with some custom pgfkeys for styling it. The end result is that you can produce:
using code:
documentclass[tikz, border=5mm]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{positioning}
begin{document}
pgfkeys{/vspecies/.is family, /vspecies,
colour/.initial = black, % rectangle colour
fill/.initial = white, % default fill
top label/.initial = M, % label on right
right label/.initial= N, % label on left
bottom label/.initial=, % label on left
left label/.initial=, % label on left
X/.initial = 5mm, % default width
Y/.initial = 5mm, % default height
shape/.initial = rectangle % default shape
}
tikzset{
pics/vspecies/.style args={#1,#2}{% node name, pgfkeys key-value pairs
code = {
pgfkeys{/vspecies, #2}
node[pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/shape},
minimum size=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/X},
minimum height=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/Y},
draw=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/colour},
fill=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/fill},
label=east:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/left label},
label=north:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/top label},
label=south:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/bottom label},
label=west:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/right label},
](#1) at (0,0){};
}
}
}
begin{tikzpicture}
pic at (0,0) {vspecies={A,colour=red,Y=10mm}};
pic[below left=10mm of A] {vspecies={B,top label=K,colour=blue,Y=20mm}};
pic[below right=10mm of A] {vspecies={C,fill=blue!10,X=10mm,shape=circle,left label=N,right label=}};
draw[->](A.south west)--(B.north east);
draw[->](A.south east)--(C.north west);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
The vspecies
pic command take two arguments: the first is the name of a (normal) tikz node label and the second argunment is a comma separated list of key-value pairs tha specify:
- the
colour
of the rectangle (default black) - the
fill
colour (default white) - the
top label
(default M) - the
left label
(default "") - the
bottom label
(default "") - the
left label
(default N) - the minimum
X
width - the minimum
Y
height - the
shape
(default rectangle)
As I said, this is overkill (and I was bored:)

@naveganteX I'm not yet a "wizard" with either TikZ or LaTeX. I'm a complete novice in TeX :D There are so many TeXperts out there, but I am not one of them, of course. I don't even know anything about TikZ 3D yet (it is in my ever to-do list)

I happen to think that you're pretty good at both, tikz and Tex. Regarding tikZ 3d, I have been wanting to plot those 3D histograms/bar chart for so long. But at the moment, it is just an illusion!

Here is an overkill solution that defines a new pics
"shape" (see section 18.2 of the 3.1.1 tikz manual),together with some custom pgfkeys for styling it. The end result is that you can produce:
using code:
documentclass[tikz, border=5mm]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{positioning}
begin{document}
pgfkeys{/vspecies/.is family, /vspecies,
colour/.initial = black, % rectangle colour
fill/.initial = white, % default fill
top label/.initial = M, % label on right
right label/.initial= N, % label on left
bottom label/.initial=, % label on left
left label/.initial=, % label on left
X/.initial = 5mm, % default width
Y/.initial = 5mm, % default height
shape/.initial = rectangle % default shape
}
tikzset{
pics/vspecies/.style args={#1,#2}{% node name, pgfkeys key-value pairs
code = {
pgfkeys{/vspecies, #2}
node[pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/shape},
minimum size=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/X},
minimum height=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/Y},
draw=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/colour},
fill=pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/fill},
label=east:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/left label},
label=north:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/top label},
label=south:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/bottom label},
label=west:pgfkeysvalueof{/vspecies/right label},
](#1) at (0,0){};
}
}
}
begin{tikzpicture}
pic at (0,0) {vspecies={A,colour=red,Y=10mm}};
pic[below left=10mm of A] {vspecies={B,top label=K,colour=blue,Y=20mm}};
pic[below right=10mm of A] {vspecies={C,fill=blue!10,X=10mm,shape=circle,left label=N,right label=}};
draw[->](A.south west)--(B.north east);
draw[->](A.south east)--(C.north west);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
The vspecies
pic command take two arguments: the first is the name of a (normal) tikz node label and the second argunment is a comma separated list of key-value pairs tha specify:
- the
colour
of the rectangle (default black) - the
fill
colour (default white) - the
top label
(default M) - the
left label
(default "") - the
bottom label
(default "") - the
left label
(default N) - the minimum
X
width - the minimum
Y
height - the
shape
(default rectangle)
As I said, this is overkill (and I was bored:)

You can use

. Btw, your code is not even compilable– JouleV
