Thanks, that much I already got. I want to know how the automatic list
values {x1,y1},... are generated so that I can adjust them
appropriately.
For example, the automatic label often puts the labels out of range,
so I might want to use {#1+2,#2-2} as my arguments, but to choose the
adjustments properly I first need to understand what values #1 and #2
will take.
