cmd_pxltext Function (ROM Call 0x37C)

AMS 1.01 or higher bascmd.h

void cmd_pxltext (CESI string, CESI y, CESI x);

Executes TI-Basic 'PxlText' command.

cmd_pxltext displays the Graph Screen and places a character string on the screen at the pixel (x,y). The coordinates are absolute pixel coordinates (independent of the current window settings), where (0,0) is the top left corner of the Graph Screen, excluding the menu area. The parameters y and x should point to integer items on the expression stack which determine the coordinates (note that the order of x and y coordinates is swapped), and the parameter string should point to the tag of a string expression to be displayed.

See also cmd_pttext, which uses window-relative coordinates, and DrawStr for much faster low-level string drawing (independently of the Graph Screen).
