Is there a way to specify the x/y position of a TextSeg within a FrameBox?

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );

Graph Builder(
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables( X( :height ), Y( :weight ) ),
	Elements(
		Points( X, Y, Legend( 1 ) ),
		Line Of Fit(
			X,
			Y,
			Legend( 4 ),
			Degree( "Cubic" ),
			Confidence of Prediction( 1 ),
			Root Mean Square Error( 1 ),
			Equation( 1 )
		)
	),
	SendToReport(
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Graph Builder",
			FrameBox,
			{DispatchSeg(
				TextSeg( 1 ),
				Set Text(
					"weight = -3850 + 197.7*height - 3.343*height² + 0.01906*height³
RMSE: 15.77  Tallest: Lawrence"
				)
			)}
		)
	)
);

Re: Is there a way to specify the x/y position of a TextSeg within a FrameBox?

If you want to control the X and Y positions of text, you will need to add a Graphics Script to the FrameBox instead of to the TextSeg as the TextSeg is always going to appear in the top left corner.

 

Here is an example:

 

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA\Big Class.jmp" );

gb = dt << Graph Builder(
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables( X( :height ), Y( :weight ) ),
	Elements(
		Points( X, Y, Legend( 1 ) ),
		Line Of Fit(
			X,
			Y,
			Legend( 4 ),
			Degree( "Cubic" ),
			Confidence of Prediction( 1 ),
			Root Mean Square Error( 1 ),
			Equation( 1 )
		)
	)
);

Report( gb )[FrameBox( 1 )] << Add Graphics Script(
	Text( Center Justified, {60, 40}, "Tallest: Lawrence" )
);

Ok, indeed was aware of Text(). TextSeg being relatively new to me, I wondered about its limitations. Thanks Justin!
