Re: [Gnuplot-py-users] labeling question

[<kai...@t-...>]

Hello,

There is no explicit support for the "set label" command in Gnuplot.py, 
but you can easily do this using the ability to pass arbitrary commands 
to gnuplot:

    for (x,y,code) in data:
        g('set label "%s" at %g,%g' % (code, x+xoffset, y+yoffset))

where xoffset and yoffset are chosen so that the label does not 
overwrite the point itself.

Hope this helps,
Michael
