below you can see my code of a tree besides a table.

Now I would like to insert some rectangles and ellipses around the nodes. Can someone show me how I can do this. I tried it but it did not work. Thank you!

    There is missing definition for \sibdist in your code. I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "insert rectangles and ellipses around the nodes". If my guess is correct, however, you could try the following: put \usetikzlibrary{shapes} in the preamble, and add options draw,ellipse (for ellipse) or simply draw (for rectangle) to the node commands (in addition to above/below/etc). – Herr K.

  • I mean rectangles like in this example: texample.net/tikz/examples/work-breakdown-structure – Samuel Jul 27 '14 at 14:50
  • Then I think my comment above should solve the problem. – Herr K. Jul 27 '14 at 18:36

You can use the fit library to construct a shape fitting the desired group of nodes; in the case of ellipses you'll need the shapes library. Since the root node of the three was called n, you can access the children using n-<string>; for exmaple, n-1-1 corresponds to D2, and n-2 is U1.

The code for the exmaple:

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\usetikzlibrary{trees,matrix,fit,shapes}

Update:

After a comment, the request was to have some of the bodes of the trees as rectangles or ellipses; this can be achieved by defining some styles and then passing these styles as options for the desired nodes; in the below example I used

        myrect/.style={draw=orange,fill=orange!30,text width=1cm,align=center},
        myellipse/.style={ellipse,draw=cyan,fill=cyan!30,inner sep=2pt,text width=1cm,align=center},

but those settings can be changed to suit needs.

Just as a suggestion, the powerful forest package could be of interest for you to draw trees in a more easy way.

  • @ Gonzalo Medina: Thank you for the answer. Actually I wanted ellipses and rectangles like in this tree: texample.net/tikz/examples/work-breakdown-structure – Samuel Jul 27 '14 at 14:42
  • @Samuel Ah, I see. Please see my updated answer. Is it something like that what you had in mind? – Gonzalo Medina Jul 28 '14 at 0:48
  • @ Gonzalo Medina: That looks very good. Is there any possibility to stretch the ellipses and rectangles horizontally? – Samuel Jul 28 '14 at 7:40
  • @Samuel Sure. You can use text width=<length> to have the desired width for the nodes. I've updated my answer with a little example of the use of this option; adjust the settings according to your needs. – Gonzalo Medina Jul 28 '14 at 14:02
