I have drawn a long line with an arrow from one node to another. How do I strike out or cancel that line? What I want is something similar to how \not cancels \to in A \not\to B, e.g.
Here's what I got so far and what I want to mimic:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node (a) {\(A\)};
\node (b) at (3,0) {\(B\)};
\draw[->] (a) to (b);% I want this line cancelled/striked out
\end{tikzpicture}
\(A \not\to B\)
\end{document}
You can use strike out from the shapes.misc tikz library.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes.misc}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node (a) {\(A\)};
\node (b) at (3,0) {\(B\)};
\draw[->] (a) -- node[strike out,draw,-]{} (b);% I want this line cancelled/striked out
\end{tikzpicture}
\(A \not\to B\)
\end{document}
This would be your modified code. And the result:
Not quite perfect perhaps.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node (a) {\(A\)};
\node (b) at (3,0) {\(B\)};
\node (c) at (3,3) {\(C\)};
\draw[->] (a) to node {\(\not\)} (b);
\draw[->] (a) to node [sloped] {\(\not\)} (c);
\end{tikzpicture}
\(A \not\to B\)
\end{document}
\not\to as well.

(b) is (3,3).

sloped as an option to the \not node. I'll update the example shortly.

[bend left/right]. – N.N. Oct 14 '11 at 15:45
