Interface Captioner
- All Known Implementing Classes:
BasicCaptioner, LatexCaptioner, NullCaptioner, OutlineCaptioner
Can paint a text caption onto a graphics context in horizontal orientation.
It might be better to rework this interface so that the reference
position is the origin of the bounding box rather than the start of
the baseline which may have a descender. That would make the calculations
easier - it's easy to get confused about the origins and height.
It would also mean this interface could just return an
Icon.
