Hi all,
after reading the various articles on the eclipse website, i found myself
wondering; is there any way to render rotated text with SWT? Just like on
Win32, with the 'CreateFontIndirect()' API's, where you can set an angle.
If not, I think the same could be done by rendering the text unrotated, on
an offscreen image, and then rotating that image. Not as elegant as rotating
the text, but it'll do. But I couldn't find any info on rotating images
either.
any help is greatly appreciated,
cu v

Hi v,
Well as I think you have to reposition every pixel according to its
relative current position and wanted angel. I don't know if there exists
such a method but I remember that there was a thread in that newsgroup
asking exactly the same.

Draw it in Java2D and then convert the resulting image to SWT.
I have some code hanging around (somewhere) for the conversion if you're
interested.

For an swt-only example of rotating an image see
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.sni ppets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet139.java?rev=HEAD& amp;content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup .
If text is drawn to an swt image then this should be useful.
