Graph annotation

This opens a dialogue that allows the graph annotation to be added and edited. The window is shown below.

An overall graph title, and titles for the x and y axis can be added. The six text effect buttons facilitate the inclusion of effects, such as italic or bold, and greek or symbol characters. These effect styles are set up in the choices font section. Text can also be moved up and down to create superscript and subscript text.

The axis text is normally placed centrally on the appropriate axis. The option Right justify legends will place the text at the right or top of the axis. The images below demonstrate these settings.

The option Y axis title text horizontal will display the Y axis text horizontally above the y axis. This is shown in the image below. If this option is set, then the option Right justify will not affect the y axis text.

The four buttons at the foot of the window control the display action. Display is used to show the text on the graph. Delete will clear the writable fields and remove the text from the graph. Hide will temporarily remove the text but not delete it. Hidden text can be recovered using the Display button. Cancel will simply close the window without making any change.

Once text has been added for graph annotation, it will be saved with the data, and will be reloaded when the data is reloaded into GraphDraw.
