Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Priority: 5 Submitted By: friedar (friedar) Assigned to: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Summary: labeloffset left/center/right Initial Comment: Use of the "labeloffset" command was initially confusing and frustrating to me although I think I now understand how it works. It was confusing because the default position for a label is with the label *center* justified on the atom but the command "labeloffset 1 0" moves the label to a position that is offset 1 pixel *from left justified* rather than from the default center position. If you are using a label that is longer than a character or two, the jump between these positions is huge, whereas "labeloffset 0 2" moves the label a miniscule amount (1 pixel further to the right than "labeloffset 1 0"). Same thing with -1 0, of course, on the opposite side. In addition it means there is a whole range of positions in between offset 1 0 and offset -1 0 that are unattainable (except for the default centered position). I am not really sure if this is a bug, but thought it might be. Hope this is the right place to bring it up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2006-09-13 16:27 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1082841 done. set labelalignment left set labelalignment right set labelalignment center independent of set labeloffset x y all this must be done AFTER the label is produced, as they all apply only to the previously selected atoms. But that should not be a serious problem. select atomno=3 label ""; this was a bit tricky - I suspect there are still a few bugs. Please test! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: friedar (friedar) Date: 2005-01-25 21:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1190355 can the label command have a set of "anchors" such as set label center justified set label left justified set label right justified and then labeloffset would move the label one pixel per offset unit from the designated justified position. also as long as you would be messing with the labels, it would be good (I guess I mean more intuitive but not essential) to be able to issue these formating commands before actually creating the label.

People seem to have a lot of problems with this behavior. The problem is, I don't know how else to do it. How else does one deal with variable length labels and still give the ability to center? Let me know if you have a suggestion.
