Re: [opendx-users] Plot question (undocumented)

[Chris Pelkie]

It may be redundant, but I thought it was that if you set 'usefixedfontsize' to true (1), it would stop rescaling as the Plot size changed, so you could do animated growing plots (I must have done this in the distant past at least once) without the labels jumping all over the place. Then, if true, use the specified 'fixedfontsize'. Presumably, otherwise, use auto-sizing. But if it's badly coded, without an override for usefixed, all bets are off.

I am working on some new features to plot but thought I'd better familiarize myself with it first. What I've found is that there are two parameters to plot that aren't documented and I don't quite understand their usefulness. If somebody could enlighten me, I'll at least document them. There are two new parameters at the end of plot named usefixedfontsize and fixedfontsize. I'm not sure what they're use is since you can do the exact same thing with Labelscale. Even in the code, it just multiplies the fixedfontsize times the x scale.

Looking for an answer.
