rotate field

[adventuresofgreg]

Is there any way to ROTATE a field so that the text in the field runs VERTICALLY up the page?

Hi Greg,

yes, but only the "hard" way: Import snapshot from the field and rotate and display the resulting image.
Of course this is not editable text

i bet that wont work on iOS ?

I think so.
Searching the release notes for "import" or "snapshot" = NADA.

wait... it must work because chartsengine uses something like that for the X axis (rotates text), and I know for a fact that Chartsengine does work on iOS.

However, since it is just numbers, I found a sort of hack to do it. I imported 10 .png files - each number from 0 to 9. My script takes the text and replaced each digit with the corresponding .png file. Maybe that's what Chartsengine does??

Hi,

snapshot works on iOS.

Kind regards
