Overlapping elements

[cvanelteren]

I run into an issue a lot where annotation are overlapping a lot. This creates a loop where I make small edits unless it "looks" right. I think UltraPlot should add a "looks good by default" option for plots with lots of texts to prevent overlaps while still allowing manual overrides when the users wants to put at exactly position x,y etc.

Something like this:

I have a similar need. I’ve tried using a couple of packages: adjustText and textalloc, which helped solve part of the problem, but they weren't smart or convenient enough in actual use.

I think I worked with the packages too, and I ran into similar issues.
