Point Text

Element	<PointText>
Description	Text position around a single reference point. This element applies to the geometry of the associated feature or dynamic graphic element (e.g. ray, arc). The position of the text extent is defined using offsets and placement information. Sub elements allow text to include multiple styles and strings.
Example	Add point text to a RECTRC line. The default position of the text is the middle of the line. The text is read from the OBJNAM attribute. The following style attributes are applied: • Font: Arial • Colour: Black • Size: Value of txtsiz attribute in namloc (10 points)

Attributes
Name	Type	Description
xPlacement	Enumerated	Status: Optional. Text placement with respect to the positive Y-axis. These options are available: • `Right` is the right-most side of the text frame with regards to the positive y-axis. • `Left` is the left-most side of the text frame with regards to the positive Y-axis. • `Middle` is the default value. Text may be reversed or flipped to keep the it readable. When placed on a line, the positive Y-axis is the left side of the line. When the rotation parameter is used it rotates the positive Y-axis.
yPlacement	Enumerated	Status: Optional. These values are available: • `Bottom` (default): Position text using the bottom edge of the text frame with respect to the positive Y-axis. • `Middle:` Position text using the middle of the text frame. • `Top:` Position text using the top edge of the text frame with respect to the positive Y-axis. • `Baseline:` Position text using the baseline of the text. For multi-line text, this is the baseline of the last line. • `BaselineFirstLine:` Position text using the baseline of the text. For multi-line text, this is the baseline of the first line. The baseline is the imaginary line upon which a line of text rests. If text orientation is along a line and `keepUpright` is True, western-bearing text will be reversed and the Y-offset direction flipped to keep text readable. Bottom text changes direction when placed along a line or the text is rotated.
rotation	Floating Point	Status: Optional. Clockwise rotation bearing in degrees starting with 0 degrees being north or display up depending on the `rotationCRS`. The default is 0.
xOffset	Floating Point	Status: Optional. The offset along the X-axis of the `xyCRS`. Units are defined by `xyCRS` and `xLineUnits`. If these are not defined the feature point or centre is used.
yOffset	Floating Point	Status: Optional. The offset along the Y-axis of the `xyCRS`. Units are mm at display scale. If not defined the feature point or centre is used.
xLineUnits	Enumerated	Status: Optional. Three options are available: • `mmdisplay` means that The `xOffset` is mm at display scale. • `mGeographic` means that X is measured in metres on the ground. percent means that `xOffset` is a percentage. 0 = beginning, 1= end. • `mmdisplay` is the default.
flipYWest	Boolean	Status: Optional. Y-offset direction flipped so as to keep the text above the line in the Western hemisphere. Default is false.
Style	String	A container of strings which will be represented using a style definition: • `font`: font or typeface name • `colour`: colour token • `size`: text size in points • `bold`: optional boolean set to `True` or `False` (default) • `italic`: optional boolean set to `True` or `False` (default) • `underline`: optional boolean set `True` or `False` (default)
verticalDirection	Enumerated	Specify how text is displayed along lines that are parallel to the y-axis of the portrayal coordinate reference system. • `PositiveY`: Text starts at the bottom end of the line and extends upwards. • `NegativeY`: Text starts at the top end of the line and extends downwards. • `Line`: Text is displayed based on the line direction. `Line` is the default.
