[ferret_users] label problem

[Heiko Goelzer <goelzer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have run into problems trying to automatically place labels on my
figures independent of margin settings. When I leave the margins
unchanged, I get the expected results. But when I chose a bottom margin
< 1.4 (the default) my measures do not work anymore.
Try to run the below script which places "top" just above the upper
limit of the plot, then try and uncomment the second 'go margin'
statement. I don't understand why and how the position changes. How can
I access the correct distance measure?
Thank you for your help

	Heiko


!!!!!!
set win/cl
set view full
go margins 2 2 1 1
!go margins 2 0.5 1 1

plot/vs l[l=1:10]-1, l[l=1:10]-1

let xpos = ($PPL$XLEN)/2
let ypos = ($PPL$YLEN)

LABEL/nouser `xpos`  `ypos`  0  0 0.12 @AStop
LABEL/nouser `xpos`  0  0  0 0.12 @ASbottom
