Hi,

I have a 2D plot, with 8 lines, I am trying to avoid using legend as
it becomes ugly after few members. I was trying to write text over the
lines itself (using menu ->insert -> text, which gives a horizontal
text) but most of the lines are at 45 degree slope, is there any way I
can allign the text with the line? or any other option.

Thanks.
