xstring
draw strings
Calling Sequence
xstring(x,y,str,[angle,[box]])
Arguments
- x,y
real vectors or scalars, coordinates of the lower-left point of the strings.
- str
matrix of strings.
Starting from Scilab 5.2, it is possible to write LaTeX or MathML expression.
- angle
real vector or scalar, clockwise angle in degree; default is 0.
- box
integer vector or scalar, default is 0.
Description
If x
is a real scalar, it's regarded as a vector with the size of y
whose elements are set to x
.
If y
is a real scalar, it's regarded as a vector with the size of x
whose elements are set to y
.
xstring
draws n strings at location (x[i], y[i])
in the current graphic scale.
If str
contain n elements, these n elements are the n drawed strings.
Otherwise, each row of the matrix stands for a line of text and row elements stand for words separated by a white space.
If angle
is a real scalar, it's regarded as a vector of size n whose elements are set to angle
.
angle(i)
gives the slope in degree used for drawing the strings at location (x[i], y[i])
.
If box
is an integer scalar, it's regarded as a vector of size n whose elements are set to box
.
If box(i)
is 1 and angle(i)
is 0, a box is drawn around the strings at location (x[i], y[i])
.
