I want to take a PGF image, scale it (scaling the text so that \resizebox will be perfect) to get a certain height, then put the rotated text to the left of the image and create a node containing everything.
Something like that:

But I want to be able to set the height of the chart without decreasing the rotated “name”.
Here is the LaTeX sample code for this example:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{positioning,fit,shapes.geometric,backgrounds} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[% inner sep=2mm, delimiter/.style={ellipse, very thick, fill=red!30, draw=red!50}, action/.style={trapezium, trapezium left angle=120, trapezium right angle=60, thick, fill=blue!30, draw=blue!50, align=center}, loop/.style={ellipse, thick, fill=yellow!30, draw=yellow!50, align=center}, title/.style={font=\LARGE\scshape,node distance=16pt, text=black!40, inner sep=1mm}, background/.style={rectangle, rounded corners, fill=black!5, draw=black!15, inner sep=4mm} ] \node[delimiter] (begin) {Begin}; \node[action] (cluster residues) [below=of begin] {Cluster residues}; \node[action] (set clusters) [below=of cluster residues] {Set properties\\for every cluster}; \node[action] (find pockets) [below=of set clusters] {Find clusters with\\$normalized\ SAS < 1$}; \node[action] (sort pockets) [below=of find pockets] {Sort pockets found}; \node[delimiter] (end) [below=of sort pockets] {End}; \draw[->] (begin.south) -- (cluster residues); \draw[->] (cluster residues) -- (set clusters); \draw[->] (set clusters) -- (find pockets); \draw[->] (find pockets) -- (sort pockets); \draw[->] (sort pockets) -- (end); \node[fit=(begin)(cluster residues)(set clusters)(find pockets)(sort pockets)(end)] (chart) {}; \node[title] (title) [left=of chart] {\rotatebox{90}{General algorithm}}; \begin{scope}[on background layer] \node[background,fit=(chart)(title)] {}; \end{scope} \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}
Any ideas on how to use \resizebox , \adjustbox or anything else to resize just the chart (and not the General Algorithm label)?
