Description Chris McGee CLA 2007-06-07 09:42:14 EDT 
The RotatedTitleLabel allows one to create a text figure where the text is rotated 90 degrees. This functionality is useful for cases outside of the palette and could be made public.
Comment 1 Randy Hudson CLA 2007-06-07 11:33:36 EDT 
Sure, but why stop at Label? We could also provide a wrapper figure that rotates any figure hierarchy using either a rotated image approach, or by invoking the advanced graphics API on Graphics.

Note that rotating an Image of text that is rendered in "Clear Type" on win32 is not optimal, and at 180-degrees looks like crap :-)
Comment 2 Anthony Hunter CLA 2007-10-18 17:10:48 EDT 
Hi Chris, you already raised a request for that API (RotatedLabelFigure).
Comment 3 Alexander Nyßen CLA 2014-08-24 11:42:55 EDT 
It seems there (no longer) is any class named RotatedTitleLabel within GEF (MVC). As such, resolving as WONTFIX.
