label

rich-text

Text drawn beside the element — rich text, so `$maths$` and inline formatting render. Fades and draws with the element.

hidden

boolean

Declared but not drawn. Animatable — `hidden: true !cue.to{false}(at: 2)` reveals it — and unlike a `cue`, a hidden element still frames the plot, so the axes do not jump when it appears.

Defaultfalse

lock

boolean

Also written: lockedKeeps the reader from editing this element on an `editable:` graph. Nothing at all on a graph that is not editable.

Defaultfalse

parametised-number

Stacking order. Higher z renders on top; when omitted or equal, elements stack in document order (later on top).
