TikZ lets making
\node (node2) [below of = node2,some options] {textlabel};
and also lets using perpendicular coordinates:
\draw[some options] (node2.south) -- (node1.east -| node3.south);
But the joint use of below
and perpendicular coordinates doesn't work:
\node (node2) [below of = (node1.east -| node3.south),some options] {textlabel};
Is it about syntax, or is it not possible at all?
And if it is not possible, how to place a node relative to some perpendicular coordinates?
I would obviously like to avoid creating a node at (node1.east -| node3.south)
and then using its name.

AFAIK
below of
expects a node name and does not support calculations. An alternative is librarypositioning
, e.g.:If
0mm
is omitted, the distance configured by optionnode distance
is used.
