document "corners" option? #58

Loving the new options. I see you use "corners" to place an html panel in the MadLabDirections example project, but I am having trouble using it. I think that the value takes the form "x1,y1,x2,y2", familiar from CSS, and that "y1" and "y2" are clock-style elevation numbers, but the x values seem to operate on some other scale. I may be missing something though.

Ah this is a feature that I added early on, but wasn't sure whether to develop it further. IIRC it works as follows: The numbers represent the coordinates of the upper-left corner, and lower-right corner of the panel. The syntax is "x1 y1 x2 y2" (no commas) x1 = upper-left direction y1 = upper-left inclination x2 = lower-right direction y2 = lower-right inclination

The values are all clock-style numbers for direction and inclination as would be used in "direction:" and "inclination:" parameters.

Also in case you weren't aware yet, when you are running a story in the browser you can press: ctrl + alt/option + d Which will bring up a label the shows the direction / inclination you are looking at.
