.XY SET DATA LABEL

This subroutine turns data labels on or off for the "current" chart layer.

      PASS         <data_total_sw>            FIELD            SHARE? N
      GOSUB    0CD .XY SET DATA LABEL
      *        Check for error

Description:

This subroutine turns data labels on or off.

The parameter is optional, valid values are: On, Off, True, False. If blank or not passed, the aggregate labels will be turned off.

Data labels are text used label data points in the layer. Different layer types put data labels in different positions. For example, in a bar chart, data labels are put at the internal end of the bar. For a line chart, data labels are put above the data points.

The data label text box become the "current" text box and subsequent calls to the various .TEXT subroutines may be made to further set/modify it's text attributes.

To set the data labels for individual dataset templates, see .XY SET DATA LABEL:DS.
