Improve multiline support #31

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When using "\n" in labels, sometimes the results are not the best.

For example this file:

msc {

  a, b;

  --- [ label = "a\nb" ];

}

It's rendered with 2 horizontal dotted lines instead of one, that would be
what one expect. Other arrows (like ->) with multiple lines are rendered
fine (one line only) but the text hides the line.

Yup - that's a bug!  It should draw a single dotted line with 'a' and 'b' 
vertically
centred on it.

How about the multiline labels hiding the lines? It can be fixed or it's that
supposed to work that way?

Thanks for the fix.

Can you give me an example of where you are seeing that?  e.g. SVG, PNG or EPS?

Attached.

Is not terrible, just a little confusing for long lines.

Thanks!

Hmm.  I thought I had it so that the line would run through there, but 
apparently
not.  I'll take a second look.

This works okay on top of trunk (I checked both with and without Freetype 
support).
Also, the other option would be to use more than 2 lines so that text is 
shorter.
