Text rotation in Birt Designer [message #1834131]

Hello!

I'm trying to find out how I can rotate the text in BIRT to be vertically (like the date is shown in the attachment).

From earlier discussions, it seems like I have to download an extension pack, but the discussion is quite a while ago.

Could someone help me with this?

I want the date to be displayed like in the attachment.

Thank you!

Try Der Spunk's solution from this post

If you are using a crosstab like in your picture, you just want to use the "value-of" your dimension.

If you want to write it bottom up use the code below.

<span style="writing-mode: vertical-rl; transform: rotate(-180deg);"><VALUE-OF>yourcolumn</VALUE-OF></span>

Thank you, I'll try. I want it to be vertically, not upside down, but I guess I replace the -180 with -90.
