Syntax

X=horizontal-coordinate;


Functions

You can use the X variable with these functions:

ARROW LABEL POINT
BAR MOVE POLY
DRAW PIE POLYCONT
IMAGE PIECNTR SYMBOL

Note:   The X or XC variable is required unless either the MIDPOINT, GROUP, or SUBGROUP variable provides the horizontal coordinate.  [cautionend]


Details

Specify a corresponding vertical coordinate when using the X variable. This vertical coordinate can be specified with the Y, YC, MIDPOINT, or SUBGROUP variables, depending on the type of graph that you are annotating.

The X variable uses the units that are specified in the XSYS variable. If you use XSYS='2' and the data axis is typed as character, use the XC variable instead of the X variable.

If the value of the X variable is missing for a function that requires it, the value of the XLAST variable is used with nontext functions and the value of the XLSTT variable is used with text functions.
