NAME

       plmtex - Write text relative to viewport boundaries

SYNOPSIS

       plmtex(side, disp, pos, just, text)

DESCRIPTION

       Writes  text  at  a  specified  position relative to the viewport boundaries.  Text may be
       written inside or outside the viewport, but is clipped at  the  subpage  boundaries.   The
       reference  point  of  a  string  lies  along a line passing through the string at half the
       height of a capital letter.  The position of  the  reference  point  along  this  line  is
       determined  by  just,  and the position of the reference point relative to the viewport is
       set by disp and pos.

       Redacted form: General: plmtex(side, disp, pos, just, text)  Perl/PDL:  plmtex(disp,  pos,
       just, side, text)

       This function is used in examples 3, 4, 6-8, 11, 12, 14, 18, 23, and 26.

ARGUMENTS

       side (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              An  ascii character string specifying the side of the viewport along which the text
              is to be written. The string must be one of: b: Bottom of  viewport,  text  written
              parallel  to  edge.   bv: Bottom of viewport, text written at right angles to edge.
              l: Left of viewport, text written parallel to edge.  lv:  Left  of  viewport,  text
              written  at  right  angles to edge.  r: Right of viewport, text written parallel to
              edge.  rv: Right of viewport, text written at right angles  to  edge.   t:  Top  of
              viewport,  text  written  parallel  to  edge.  tv: Top of viewport, text written at
              right angles to edge.

       disp (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              Position of the reference point of string, measured  outwards  from  the  specified
              viewport edge in units of the current character height.  Use negative disp to write
              within the viewport.

       pos (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              Position of the reference point of string along the specified edge, expressed as  a
              fraction of the length of the edge.

       just (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              Specifies the position of the string relative to its reference point.  If just=0. ,
              the reference point is at the left and if just=1. , it  is  at  the  right  of  the
              string.  Other values of just give intermediate justifications.

       text (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A UTF-8 character string to be written out.
