6 plmtex3 - Write text relative to viewport boundaries in 3D plots
7
9 plmtex3(side, disp, pos, just, text)
10
12 Writes text at a specified position relative to the viewport bound‐
13 aries. Text may be written inside or outside the viewport, but is
14 clipped at the subpage boundaries. The reference point of a string
15 lies along a line passing through the string at half the height of a
16 capital letter. The position of the reference point along this line is
17 determined by just, and the position of the reference point relative to
18 the viewport is set by disp and pos.

20 Redacted form: plmtex3(side, disp, pos, just, text)

22 This function is used in example 28.
23
25 side (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
26 An ascii character string specifying the side of the viewport
27 along which the text is to be written. The string should contain
28 one or more of the following characters: [xyz][ps][v]. Only one
29 label is drawn at a time, i.e. xyp will only label the X axis,
30 not both the X and Y axes. x: Label the X axis. y: Label the Y
31 axis. z: Label the Z axis. p: Label the primary axis. For Z
32 this is the leftmost Z axis. For X it is the axis that starts at
33 y-min. For Y it is the axis that starts at x-min. s: Label the
34 secondary axis. v: Draw the text perpendicular to the axis.

36
37 disp (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
38 Position of the reference point of string, measured outwards
39 from the specified viewport edge in units of the current charac‐
40 ter height. Use negative disp to write within the viewport.
41
42 pos (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
43 Position of the reference point of string along the specified
44 edge, expressed as a fraction of the length of the edge.
45
46 just (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
47 Specifies the position of the string relative to its reference
48 point. If just=0. , the reference point is at the left and if
49 just=1. , it is at the right of the string. Other values of
50 just give intermediate justifications.
51
52 text (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
53 A UTF-8 character string to be written out.
