[reportlab-users] How to add a title to a chart?

[reportlab-users@reportlab.com]

Great -

I think use the textAnchor = 'middle' for now, but I will be later fitting
multiple charts on a page.  I can't find a 'hello world' example for
platypus.  The one mentioned in the user guide was not part of the .zip
file I downloaded.  Anway, is there a simple one out there somebody can
post?

Thanks for the help.
