There is one option I wish I could have in plplot: making a linebreak to put labels in between. To be precise, there may be two options. One is, make a line, put a white box on the line, then put numbers in. The other option is, literally break a line (draw two lines with some space) and put numbers in between. (Both look good to me). Hopefully anyone can spare some time to consider adding it or tell me how ?
Hi Shozee: I am answering you on the assumption your subject line should have been "line break for PLplot" since you did not mention plcont anywhere inside your email. If that assumption is correct I suggest you take a look at pllegend which was designed to give users tremendous control over how text (and graphics) are arranged within a legend (within a plot). Of course, that enormous capability makes its API complex, but check the [documentation of that API](http://plplot.org/docbook-manual/plplot-html-5.15.0/pllegend.html) to see whether that API might provide exactly what you need. That API is demonstrated in a simplistic way in [example 4](http://plplot.org/examples.php?demo=04) and [example 26](http://plplot.org/examples.php?demo=26) which are useful to show how to turn everything off other than the small subset of that API that you need. That API is demonstrated in a more comprehensive way in [example 33](http://plplot.org/examples.php?demo=33). Good luck and let us know how it goes! Alan __________________________ Alan W.
