/// Draw a pave text.
/// The text lines are added in order using the AddText method
/// Line separator can be added using AddLine.
///
/// AddText returns a TText corresponding to the line added to the pave. This
/// return value can be used to modify the text attributes.
///
/// Once the TPaveText is build the text of each line can be retrieved as a
/// TText with GetLine and GetLineWith wich is also useful to modify the text
/// attributes of a line.
