Size a Graph

#pragma rtGlobals=1     // Use modern global access method.
// This routine places a command under the "Graph" menu which allows
// sizing of the outer portion of a graph in units of inches. Thus one can
// arrange annotations while the graph is at it's proper size. The graph
// can then be exported and should appear just as it does on screen.
// This was written using IgorPro 6.02 and tested on a Windows XP box.
