This question already has an answer here:

I actually want to reproduce the following Venn diagram:

batman diagram

For this, it is important that the central overlapping zone is yellow; it would be nice to reproduce the other overlapping colors too...

This is my attempt, absolutely lame...

\documentclass[class=article,border=0pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}

\def\A{(0,0) circle (4cm)}
\def\B{(1,2) circle (4cm)}
\def\B{(2,0) circle (4cm)}


\begin{document}
    \begin{tikzpicture}
        \node[circle, fill=blue, opacity=.5, minimum size=4cm] (A) at (0,0) {};
        \node[circle, fill=red, opacity=.5, minimum size=4cm] (B) at (1,2) {};
        \node[circle, fill=green, opacity=.5, minimum size=4cm] (C) at (2,0) {};

\begin{scope}
\clip \A;
\fill[yellow] \B;
\end{scope}
    \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

I want to use it inside a Beamer presentation that I compile with LuaLaTeX

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.

  • What do you mean by customized colors? – Alenanno Jun 18 '15 at 9:39
  • This could help you texample.net/tikz/examples/venn-diagram-blended – Sigur Jun 18 '15 at 9:42
  • different to the ones you get just overlapping the circles... for example, I want yellow in the center, which is not the result of overlapping light blue, light green, and light red... or strong red (JERK), which is not the result of overlapping light blue and light green – DaniCee Jun 18 '15 at 9:42
  • See also: TikZ labelling venn diagram – Alenanno Jun 18 '15 at 9:43
  • Well, overlapping red and green you're not supposed to get blue navy. Unless you color the small sections yourself. – Alenanno Jun 18 '15 at 9:44

Here's a solution with clipping as in Draw ellipses with different coloring for their intersection in tikz?

\documentclass[tikz,border=2mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{xcolor}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[{every node/.style={black,font=\sffamily\Large}}]
    \def\firstcircle{(0,0) circle (3cm)}
    \def\secondcircle{(3,0) circle (3cm)}
    \def\thirdcircle{(1.5,3) circle (3cm)}
    \def\boundingbox{(-3,-3) rectangle (6,4.5)}

    \definecolor{handsome}{HTML}{C8CADF}
    \definecolor{jerk}{HTML}{EF3A43}
    \definecolor{batman}{HTML}{FBC405}
    \definecolor{dumb}{HTML}{B7CA54}
    \definecolor{smart}{HTML}{C7DAC4}
    \definecolor{nerd}{HTML}{4C4B6B}
    \definecolor{nice}{HTML}{E4B1AD}

    \node[font=\huge] at (1.5,6.5) {MEN};
    % fill circles
    \fill[smart] \firstcircle node[xshift=-1.5cm, yshift=-.5cm] {SMART};
    \fill[nice] \secondcircle node[xshift=1.5cm, yshift=-.5cm] {NICE};
    \fill[handsome] \thirdcircle node[yshift=1cm] {HANDSOME};

    % fill intersections
    % intersection of first and second
    \begin{scope}
        \clip \boundingbox \thirdcircle;
        \clip \firstcircle;
        \fill[nerd] \secondcircle node[black, xshift=-1.5cm, yshift=-.5cm] {NERD};
    \end{scope}
    % intersection of first and third
    \begin{scope}
        \clip \boundingbox \secondcircle;
        \clip \firstcircle;
        \fill[jerk] \thirdcircle node[xshift=-1.8cm, yshift=-1cm] {JERK};
    \end{scope}
    % intersection of second and third
    \begin{scope}
        \clip \boundingbox \firstcircle;
        \clip \secondcircle;
        \fill[dumb] \thirdcircle node[xshift=1.8cm, yshift=-1cm] {DUMB};
    \end{scope}
    % intersection of first, second and third
    \begin{scope}
        \clip \firstcircle;
        \clip \secondcircle;
        \clip \thirdcircle;
        \fill[batman] \boundingbox;
    \end{scope}

    \node at (1.5,1.2) {X};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Here's a solution with pgfplots and intersections. There might be simpler solution (like with clipping), but this can be an alternative.

  • That Batman sign is dope! I get the following error, though: ! I can't find file `pgflibrarypgfplots.fillbetween.code.tex'. – DaniCee Jun 18 '15 at 11:28

    @DaniCee Maybe your Tex distribution is outdated? – Alenanno Jun 18 '15 at 11:35

Here is a suggestion using path picture as node option:

\documentclass[margin=5pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[
    kreis/.style={circle,fill=#1,minimum size=4cm},kreis/.default=none
  ]
  \def\tshift{.2cm}
  \path
    (0,0) coordinate (A)
    (1,2) coordinate (B)
    (2,0) coordinate (C)
  ;
  \path
    (A)
      node [kreis=green!20]{}
      node [below left=\tshift and \tshift] {SMART}
    (B)
      node [kreis=blue!20,
            path picture={\node[kreis=red!80!black!60] at (A){};}]{}
      node [above=\tshift] {HANDSOME}
    (C)
      node [kreis=red!20,
            path picture={
              \node[kreis=blue!50!red!80!black!70] at (A){};
              \node[kreis=green!80!black!60,
                    path picture={\node[kreis=yellow] at (A){};}
                    ] at (B){};}]{}
      node [below right=\tshift and \tshift]{NICE}
  ;
  \path
    (1,0) node [below=\tshift]{NERD}
    (1,1) node [above left=\tshift and 2.5*\tshift] {JERK}
          node [above right=\tshift and 2.5*\tshift]{DUMB}
          node [yshift=-\tshift,font=\Huge]{X}
