Remarks

Displaying the title

The modifications performed by grTitle will be taken into account during the next call to grDraw.

Manual positioning of the title: grTitle without effect

grTitle has no effect if the title of the chart is positioned manually ("Manual positioning" in the chart title window).

Languages that use a non-Latin character set

grTitle will use the selected non-Latin character set only if the associated project configuration uses UNICODE strings at runtime.
To check the selected option in the current configuration:
  1. On the "Project" tab, in the "Project configuration" group, click "Current configuration".
  2. Go to the "Unicode" tab: "Use UNICODE strings at runtime" must be checked.
  3. Validate if necessary.
