For lack of a better term ... I'm looking for a feature that could place a text label in the viewport closest to a desired coordinate, but without intersecting any plotted data nor being clipped by the viewport bounds? AFAICT, there is no API that does this. I suppose its probably non-trivial. I'm wondering though if there is some feature that could test for intersection/clipping before updating the plot so I could provide an iterative method of placement. Any thoughts?
To understand the problem I'm trying to solve, see this post where the GM and PM labels get clipped (https://www.picotech.com/support/topic14311-120.html#p78941). I suppose I could also let the user configure label placement, but only if there's no other practical way to automate it.
