If the option Diagram Coordinates is selected, the position and the reference corner can be specified. Example: The upper left corner of a drawing object can be displayed at the position rpm = 3000 and Torque = 100 Nm. If the axis scaling is altered, the drawing object will be moved to the new position (3000, 100).

The text box size is calculated automatically.
If the option Word Wrap is marked in the dialog page Edit Object=>Text only the height of the text box is calculated automatically.
- Reference Position
This sets the anchor point of the text box which stays fixed when the size of the text changes. The size might change when a new text gets assigned.
