Class Description

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Text Attributes class*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                      =====================
*-*  Text attributes are:
*-*    Text Alignment
*-*    Text Color
*-*    Text Font
*-*    Text Size
*-*    Text Angle
*-*
*-*  This class is used (in general by secondary inheritance)
*-*
*-*  by many other classes (graphics, histograms).
*-*    align : Text alignment = 10*HorizontalAlign + VerticalAlign
*-*            For Horizontal alignment the following convention applies:
*-*               1=left adjusted, 2=centered, 3=rigth adjusted
*-*            For Vertical alignment the following convention applies:
*-*               1=bottom adjusted, 2=centered, 3=top adjusted
*-*            For example align = 11 = left adjusted and bottom adjusted
*-*                        align = 32 = right adjusted and vertically centered
*-*    angle : Text angle in degrees
*-*    color : Text Color Index
*-*    font  : Text font code = 10*fontnumber + precision
*-*             Font numbers must be between 1 and 14
*-*             precision = 0 fast hardware fonts (steps in the size)
*-*             precision = 1 scalable and rotatable hardware fonts (see below)
*-*             precision = 2 scalable and rotatable hardware fonts
*-*             precision = 3 scalable and rotatable hardware fonts. Text size
*-*                           is given in pixels.
*-*    size  : Character size expressed in percentage of the current pad height
*-*            The textsize in pixels (say charheight) will be:
*-*             charheight = textsize*canvas_height if current pad is horizontal.
*-*             charheight = textsize*canvas_width  if current pad is vertical.
*-*             charheight = number of pixels if font precision is greater than 2
*-*
*-* Font quality and speed
*-* ======================
*-*  When precision 0 is used, only the original non-scaled system fonts
*-*  are used. The fonts have a minimum (4)  and maximum (37) size in pixels.
*-*  These fonts are fast and are of good quality. Their size varies with
*-*  large steps and they cannot be rotated.
*-*  Precision 1 and 2 fonts have a different behaviour depending if the
*-*  True Type Fonts are used or not. If TTF are used, you always get
*-*  very good quality scalable and rotatable fonts. However TTF are slow.
*-*  Precision 1 and 2 fonts have a different behaviour for Postscript
*-*  in case of TLatex objects. With precision 1, the Postscript text uses
*-*  the old convention (see TPostScript) for some special characters
*-*  to draw sub and superscripts or greek text.
*-*  With precision 2 the "PostScript" special characters are drawn as such.
*-*  To draw sub and superscripts it is highly recommended to use TLatex
*-*  objects instead.
*-*
*-*  How to use True Type Fonts
*-*  ==========================
*-*  You can activate the TTF by adding (or activating) the following line
*-*  in your .rootrc file.
*-*  Unix.*.Root.UseTTFonts:     true
*-*  WinNT  for NT
*-*  You can check that you indeed use the TTF in your Root session.
*-*  When the TTF is active, you get the following message at the start
*-*  of a session:
*-*    "FreeType Engine v1.x used to render TrueType fonts."
*-*  You can also check with the command gEnv->Print().
*-*
*-*  List of the currently supported fonts (screen and PostScript)
