- How do you draw non-horizontal text in Visual Basic, or Windows in general
- for that matter ? I need to draw text at any orientation.
-
- Also, I have seen programs that generate 3 dimensional graphs where the text
- used to label the axes also appears 3 dimensional. That is, the user can
- specify the viewing angle for the graph and the vertical axis text is drawn
- vertically and appears to be rotated about the Z axis as well, so it appears
- to be in the same plane as the vertical axis grid. It works with ATM and
- True Type fonts. How is that done ??
-
- Thanks for any and all help.
- Please respond by email.
