#summary Reference for options affecting text positioning

=Text Positioning=

==textxalign==

The textxalign option is used to specify where to horizontally position the text.

  • textxalign=offleft
  • textxalign=left
  • textxalign=center
  • textxalign=right
  • textxalign=offright
  • textxalign=justify

Notes

  • By default (in the absence of textxalign or textyalign), each character of text is placed immediately below the corresponding modules where this is possible.
  • Where there isn't such a direct relationship then the default is to position the text centrally beneath the symbol.

==textyalign==

The textyalign option is used to specify where to vertically position the text.

  • textyalign=below
  • textyalign=center
  • textyalign=above

Notes

  • By default (in the absence of textxalign or textyalign), each character of text is placed immediately below the corresponding modules where this is possible.
  • Where there isn't such a direct relationship then the default is to position the text centrally beneath the symbol.

The horizontal position of the text in points relative to the default position.
