Jeff,

In case that you meant to rotate a font, please review function FontRotate() and use in FWH\source\classes\tabs.prg

Another way
Define oFont the normal way
From that font you can derive rotated fonts :
oFont90 := oFont:Rotate( 900 )

Hello Jeff,

I don't know, if You need maybe painting vertical text.
It is not possible with the normal < rotate >
The position of the Char's must be calculated.
