Hard to know what you want or did without code. But, a guess: did you want the "srt" parameter and not "crt"?
Of course, it's always useful to read the man page, in this case for ?par, where it says: (for crt): "A numerical value specifying (in degrees) how **single characters** should be rotated. It is unwise to expect values other than multiples of 90 to work. Compare with srt which does string rotation." [note: "string" = several characters = text] Cheers, Bert Bert Gunter "The trouble with having an open mind is that people keep coming along and sticking things into it." -- Opus (aka Berkeley Breathed in his "Bloom County" comic strip ) On Mon, May 1, 2017 at 1:57 PM, Michael Hannon <jmhannon.ucda...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, folks.
