DR, Relative Direction This command specifies the direction in which labels are drawn, relative to the scaling points P1 and P2. Label direction is adjusted when P1 and P2 change so that labels maintain the same relationship to the scaled data. Use DR to change labeling direction when you are labeling curves. DR run,rise[;] or DR [;] Table 23-18 Parameter Format run clamped real rise clamped real Functional Range -32768 to 32767 Default 1% of P2X-P1X -32768 to 32767 0 The DR command updates the Carriage Return point to the current location. While DR is in effect, with or without parameters, the label direction is affected by changes in the location of P1 and P2. DR is also affected by the Define Variable Text Path (DV) command. Refer to the DI command earlier in this chapter for an explanation of this interaction. z No Parameters- Defaults the label direction to relative and horizontal (parallel to the X-axis). Equivalent to (DR1,0). z Run- Specifies a percentage of the distance between P1X and P2X. z Rise- Specifies a percentage of the distance between P1Y and P2Y. EN DR, Relative Direction 23-37
