Scott: Of course, the problem will be that I don't want the screen to be jumping around while the text is being displayed, then rotated. I assume that the text field needs to appear on the screen for the snapshot to work. Hmm, I'll have to think about whether this is ok. Or, perhaps I can make some pre-defined labels that are generic enough and use them for the axis labels (just thinking aloud). That would work. Best, Bill
