Hi,
I have the following very annoying problem in generating plots and
other graphic stuff.
I searched the Archives and the Web for help but I was not able to
solve it.
Maybe it is a trivial issue so I really hope someone can help.
When I add a text cell to a plot, it happens that the text cell
"overwrites" all what is drawn at the right-hand-side of the cell. It's
like the text cell had a white background that extends indefinitly on
the right and covers the plot.
For instance, a simple command is:
Plot[x,{x,0,1},Epilog->{Text["a line",{0.3,0.5}]}]
The graphic result is Figure1 posted on my webpage
http://pantheon.yale.edu/~mc654/mathproblem/mathproblem.html
The same happens with the Ticks of the Frame (see Figure 2), and also
if I use different ways of adding text to a plot, like
Show[Graphics[{xxx,Text}]] (see Figure 3).
I'm running Mathematica 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) on an Apple
PowerBook G4.
The problem appeared after a while, so it can be I toggled an option
that I don't remember (unlikely), but I tried a complete reinstallation
of Mathematica without success.
Did anybody hear of the same problem? Can please anybody help?
Thank you very much.
Marco
