xstringb draw strings into a box

## Syntax

    xstringb(x,y,str,w,h,[option])

## Arguments

x,y,w,h

  vector of 4 real scalars defining the box.

str

  matrix of strings.

  Starting from Scilab 5.2, it is possible to write LaTeX or MathML expression.

option

  string.

## Description

`xstringb` draws the matrix of strings `str` centered inside the rectangle `rect=[x,y,w,h]` (lower-left point, width, height) in user coordinates.

If `option` is given with the value `"fill"`, the character size is computed so as to fill as much as possible in the rectangle.

Enter the command `xstringb()` to see a demo.

## Examples

    str=["Scilab" "is";"$\sqrt{not}$" "elisaB"];
    plot2d(0,0,[-1,1],"010"," ",[0,0,1,1]);

    r=[0,0,1,0.5];
    xstringb(r(1),r(2),str,r(3),r(4),"fill");
    xrect(r(1),r(2)+r(4),r(3),r(4));

    r=[r(1),r(2)+r(4)+0.01,r(3),r(4)/2];
    xrect(r(1),r(2)+r(4),r(3),r(4))
    xstringb(r(1),r(2),str,r(3),r(4),"fill");

str=["Scilab" "is";"$\sqrt{not}$" "elisaB"]; plot2d(0,0,[-1,1],"010"," ",[0,0,1,1]); r=[0,0,1,0.5]; xstringb(r(1),r(2),str,r(3),r(4),"fill"); xrect(r(1),r(2)+r(4),r(3),r(4)); r=[r(1),r(2)+r(4)+0.01,r(3),r(4)/2]; xrect(r(1),r(2)+r(4),r(3),r(4)) xstringb(r(1),r(2),str,r(3),r(4),"fill");
