Description

adds one or more lines of text, centered around "mid" in an ellipsoid box

Usage

textellipse(mid, radx, rady=radx*length(lab), lwd=1,  
  shadow.size=0.01, adj=c(0.5,0.5),lab="", box.col="white", 
  lcol="black", shadow.col="grey", angle=0, dr=0.01, ...)

Arguments

mid midpoint (x,y) of the box.
radx horizontal radius of the box.
rady vertical radius of the box.
lwd line width of line surrounding the box.
shadow.size relative size of shadow.
adj text adjustment.
