Labeled

Labeled[expr,lbl]

displays expr labeled with lbl.

Labeled[expr,lbl,pos]

places lbl at a position specified by pos.

Labeled[expr,{lbl1,lbl2,…},{pos1,…}]

places the lbli at positions posi.

Labeled[expr,{lbl1,lbl2,lbl3,lbl4},All]

places the lbli at the bottom, left, top, and right, respectively.

Details and Options

  • Labeled can be used with graphics or any other expression.
  • Possible forms for the posi are:
  • sidecentered on the specified side
    {side,align}on the specified side with the specified alignment
  • Possible forms for side include Bottom, Left, Top, Right.
  • Possible forms for align include Center, Left, Right, Bottom, Top.
  • In charting functions such as BarChart and PieChart, certain additional special positions such as Above and "RadialCenter" are supported.
  • Labeled[expr,lbls,All] is equivalent to Labeled[expr,lbls,{Bottom,Left,Top,Right}].
  • The effective default for pos is normally Bottom.
  • Labeled[expr,…] does not affect linewrapping of expr.
  • The following options can be given:
  • Alignment {Center,Baseline}horizontal and vertical alignment of elements
    Background Nonewhat background colors to use
    BaselinePosition Automaticwhat to align with a surrounding text baseline
    BaseStyle{}base style specifications for the labeled expression
    ContentSize Automaticthe absolute size for the content area
    Frame Nonewhether to draw a frame
    FrameMargins 0margins to leave inside the frame
    FrameStyle Automaticstyles to use for frames
    ImageMargins 0margins to add outside the display area
    LabelStyle {}style specifications for labels
    RotateLabel Falsewhether to rotate left and right labels
    RoundingRadius 0radius for rounded corners
    Spacings Automatichorizontal and vertical label spacings
  • The settings for BaseStyle and LabelStyle are appended to the default styles typically given by the "Labeled" and "LabeledLabel" styles in the current stylesheet.
