I have the current design
\begin{tikzpicture}
\def\longitudUno{2}
\def\longitudDos{3.6}
\def\pico{0.25}
\def\altura{0.5}
\def\separación{\longitudUno+0.08}
\draw [azulPalido,fill=azulPalido,line width=0pt,xshift=6.05cm] (0,0) -- (0,\altura) -- (\longitudUno,\altura)-- (\longitudUno+\pico,\altura/2) -- (\longitudUno,0) -- cycle;
\draw [azulOscuro,fill=azulOscuro,line width=0pt,xshift=6.05cm] (\separación,0) -- (\separación+\longitudDos,0) -- (\separación+\longitudDos+\pico,\altura/2) -- (\separación+\longitudDos,\altura) -- (\separación,\altura) -- (\separación+\pico,\altura/2) -- cycle;
\node[text=white,font=\bfseries,] at (7.1,0.25){Business};
\node[text=white,font=\bfseries,] at (10.1,0.25){Ireland bailout};
\end{tikzpicture}
to draw
Like you can see in newspapers like http://www.theguardian.com/business/2011/apr/03/irish-property-going-for-a-song
However, I would with this design I have to manually place the texts and specify the box lenghts (variable 'longitud') as well as the position of elements without any anchor posibility. Is there a way I could improve this? Maybe with a custom node shape?
