Thank-you for a very elegant solution, Wolfgang, unfortunately I get an error:

! Argument of \dododefinecolor has an extra }.

I have fixed this by using:
label.rt(textext("\framed[frame=off,align=right]{One\\Two}"),origin);

which works okay. It's not as elegant but as the code is generated
automatically it does not require any more typing on my part!

Thanks again.

Richard
