Re: [Gnuplot-info] How to place labels with different backgrounds within one plot?

[theozh <th...@gm...>]

Thanks again. Well, the multiplot "trick" is probably not the nicest but simplest workaround.

It looks like that the several identical plots on top of each other create, e.g. thicker axis labels and data lines. At least that's what I believe to see in the wxt terminal.
Unfortunately, interactive scaling in the wxt terminal will only work on the last (multi)plot and the other labels are gone.


### different label backgrounds in "one" plot
reset
set multiplot layout 1,1

unset label
set style textbox opaque fc rgb "red"
set label 1 "red textbox" right at graph 0.5,0.8 boxed

plot sin(x)

unset label
set style textbox opaque fc rgb "green"
set label 2 "green textbox" right at graph 0.5,0.7 boxed

replot

unset label
set style textbox opaque fc rgb "blue"
set label 3 "blue textbox" right at graph 0.5,0.6 boxed

replot

unset multiplot
### end code
