What inspired this wish list request?
When adding text to a display output or to a Graph Box() it is fairly easy to find the starting point on the graph where a text value is to be placed, however the Text() function only currently allows for Center Justify or Right Justify. Currently, the positioning of text on the left edge of the display frame requires one to calculate the length of the text in characters and then to do some sort of estimating of how that length in characters relates to the X scaling of the graph
What is the improvement you would like to see?
Allow:
Names Default To Here( 1 );
New Window( "Example",
Graph Box(
Text Color( "red" );
Text( Left Justified, {50, 20}, "Left" );
)
);
Why is this idea important?
This would make adding text to output much cleaner to implement.
Thank you for sharing this request!
I bumped into the same problem. As soon as you add "Boxed" option - the default Left justification turns into Center Justified and there is no easy way to align multiple texts to the left.
