Hello,

I am plotting some data using the sddsplot -layout=2,2 etc. command. I was wondering if there was something like a "global title", like one line above all of the subplots, with a width of the whole plot area. Is there any simple option to do this?

And another question: How can I tell elegant to use Twiss-parameters from a file?

Thanks in advance,

Best regards
Sven

Sven,

Alas, there is no global title option. You could easily add one with ImageMagick (using convert with the -annotate option).

For the second, question, are you trying to start a twiss parameter computation from values in a file? If so, use the reference_file option of &twiss_output. If not, please give more detail on your application.

Thanks for the fast response.

The "reference_file" command was exactly what I was looking for - I just didn't find it in the manual. A global title option might be worth to be integrated. Right now I am using IrfanViev to make annotations inside the file - it works also well.

Thanks again,
best regards,

Sven
