Sometimes one just wants to add some text to the diagram and in this case the symbol text
syntax may be a bit heavy and difficult to do. As an easier way to do that Msc-generator offers the
text at
command.
text at
pos [attributes]: label;
This draws just text (you must specify a label) at the vertical position the command is written. You can use simple horizontal position specifiers, like below to place the text centered in-between two entities; left of an entity, centered around an entity or right of an entity. You can optionally specify a number, which will be interpreted as a pixel offset to the right (negative value to the left.)
entity
-entity
[number
]entity
-- [number
]entity
- [number
]entity
[number
]entity
+ [number
]entity
++ [number
]
You can influence the default appearance via the text
built-in style.
