Summary0033103: Visualization - Add a pivot point and other offset manipulators to Graphic3d_Text or Font_TextFormatter
DescriptionAs far as i can tell, the current implementation of text alignment restricts to left|center|right and top|center|bottom for x and y.
It would be handy for some usecases to be able to specify arbitrary pivot points.
They should be normalized but not limited between 0 and 1 so that pivots outside the text bounds could be implemented.

One usecase i currently have is to display a marker with a text to the right. Depending on the markers size, the text will always start within the marker (using Graphic3d_HTA_LEFT and Graphic3d_VTA_CENTER).
When (0., .5) in normalized pivot coordinates would correspond to this alignment pair, it would be nice to have an offset to the left, e.g. (-.1, .5).

On the other hand, because the pivot would be normalized, the offset could depend on the text bounds which is not always desired.
For these cases a additional absolute offset to the normalized pivot could be handy which uses the same metric as the text height set in Graphic3d_Text so that f.e. when the height is 10. a offset of -30. would correspond to around three characters offset at the left.

The only way i know to achieve this at the moment is to prefix (or suffix) the texts with whitespaces.
