AppendText

AppendText [/W=winName /N=name /NOCR[=n ]] textStr

The AppendText operation appends a carriage return and textStr to the most recently created annotation, or to the named annotation in the target or named graph or layout window. Annotations include tags, textboxes, color scales, and legends.

Parameters

textStr can contain escape codes to control font, font size and other stylistic variations. See Annotation Escape Codes for details.

Flags

/N=name	Appends textStr to the named tag or textbox.
/NOCR[=n ]	Omits the initial appending of a carriage return (allows a long line to be created with multiple AppendText commands). /NOCR=0 is the same as not specifying /NOCR at all, and /NOCR=1 is the same as just /NOCR.
/W=winName	Appends to an annotation in the named graph or layout window or subwindow. Without /W, AppendText appends to an annotation in the topmost graph or layout window or subwindow. This must be the first flag specified when AppendText is used in a Proc or Macro or on the command line.
	When identifying a subwindow with winName, see Subwindow Syntax for details on forming the window hierarchy.

Details

A textbox, tag, or legend can have at most 100 lines. A color scale can have at most one line, and this line is the color scale's main axis label.
