Following @Alain Matthes's reply on this question, wa can get a picture like this:

I am not good enough to adapt the code to split the circle into 4 quarters. Can you help me?

\documentclass[11pt]{scrartcl}

\usetikzlibrary{shapes,backgrounds,calc}

    Do you want/need a node shape with four node parts? Maybe Basic geometric shapes, sections, shading is related (my answer anyway).

  • @Qrrbrbirlbel:Yes, I would like a node shape with four node parts. I will have a look there. Thanks!

  • How should the text boxes be aligned horizontal? (Consider text boxed with different widths.)

The following code defines a circle cross split shape with the node parts and their short-hands

  • text,
  • two = tr,
  • three = br, and
  • four = bl.

It requires the shapes.multipart library (which also provides the PGF node part boxes which are \let to the corresponding short-hands) and needs:

  • the list processor \pgf@lib@sh@rs@process@list;
  • the macros \pgf@lib@sh@getalpha and \pgf@lib@sh@toalpha to convert 1, 2, … in one, two, …;
  • \pgf@lib@sh@rs@nonetext which simply contains none so that one can selectively disable the filling for one of the quarters.

The text boxes are “center-aligned”. This means that one of the corners of the text boxes will be stuffed in the center corner from the cross (the inner separators are included).

The two upper parts and the two lower parts are base-aligned respectively.

Further improvement:

  • Align options for node parts that are below/above each other.
  • The third example and the second example with inner sep=+0pt show that the dimension of the text boxes are not really correctly used in the calculation of the radius of the circle. With empty inner separators, the shape border will cross the boxes.

  • Using the exact code from the link but using \node at (4,,4) instead of just \node leads to the text node label not being shifted accordingly. In fact, the entire mid anchor refuses to get shifted. How do I correct this?

    @TushantMittal I know it has been quite a while but I fixed the mistake. The dimension \pgf@y was never initialized inside the definition of \centerpoint.

    Although this draws a circle with four parts, it doesn't really achieve the same thing as the original answer which creates a circle node with two parts, each of which is a node.
