Need to rotate text 90 degrees in Numbers...any hints?

If you mean rotate text in a cell then this discussion may help with ideas to coerce Numbers to do what you want when it does not have the capability:

How to Rotate Text 90 Degree?

I tried to rotate text so that it reads from bottom to
top of the screen (vertically). How to do it?
I tried w/ Graphics2D and AffineTransform class but fail.
Here is my code:
AffineTransform af = new AffineTransform(0.0, 1.0, 1.0,
0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
Graphics2D newg = (Graphics2D) g;
g.setTransform(af);
g.drawString("Rotated Text", 70.0f, 70.0f);
Anybody do text rotation please post reply.
Thanks!

I need to rotate video 90 degrees and make it look right.

I'm editing a video for a friend - they shot some video vertically (they didn't realize it doesn't work for video as it does for still photos).
I tried rotating the picture but it's distorted (Stretched). Are there settings I can use to rotate picture 90 degrees without distortion (I realize there will be some kind of letterbox effect).
Thanks.

The distortion you're seeing is the difference of non-square pixels in height vs width. Even though you rotated the picture to correct the angle, the video will still look stretched until you compensate for the non-square pixels.
There's math involved if you want to get it exact, but I'd probably just select a top corner and, holding down the SHIFT key, distort the video until it looks right in the frame. You'll still be left with some pillar-boxing, but at least it'll look correct.

Rotate/rotating text in SmartForms

Need to rotate text 90 degrees in a SmartForm.
The printers are all PCL based.
New print-controls cannot be created.
In PCL, the following command sets rotation:
<ESC>&a#P
where # is the number of degrees
To rotate 90 degrees, the PCL command would be:
<ESC>&a90P
In SAPscript, I can use the print-control for <ESC>.
/: PRINT-CONTROL SESCP
= &a90P
Another method that works involves standard texts.
Define standard texts named ZPCLROTATE90 and ZPCLROTATE0.
They willl set the rotation to 90 and reset to 0 degrees.
/: PRINT-CONTROL SESCP
( &a90P
/: PRINT-CONTROL SESCP
( &a0P
The SAPscript uses the new standard text objects:
AS horizontal text
/: INCLUDE ZZPCLROTATE90 OBJECT TEXT ID ST
AS rotated text
/: INCLUDE ZZPCLROTATE0 OBJECT TEXT ID ST
AS horizontal again
This also works in SAPscript.
None of this seems to work in SmartForms. I thought the INCLUDE text would work the same in SmartForms. It does not.
Tried the first method shown; SmartForms converts the "=" or "(" paragraph symbol to "*". This separates the escape sequence and it becomes invalid.
Any ideas? They do not want to use SAPscript. Cannot create a Z print-control.
Thanks,
Norm

Hi,
   Try to follow the steps givenbelow in your SMARTFORM.
1. Create a template and keep the text alone inside that you wanted to rotate.
2. Above and Below your text, In the text element that you wanted to rotate give the Print control.
Ex PRINT CONTROL 'SF201'
     &variable text&
    PRINT CONTROL'SF202'
2. Create a command inside the window and enter the attribute name and the attribute value.
    Ex. Use Attribute name as S_LZPL_HR1
                 Attribute value as 'BC_CD39'
3 Create another command above the template and enter the value "SF200" in Include Printer control.
4.Create another command above the template and enter the value "SF202" in Include Printer control.
I followed the above procedure for rotation of texts, and it worked.
Thanks

How do you rotate text

I am looking to rotate text 90 degrees. I cant seem to find this basic function in numbers.

Hi Bru,
Text rotation is possible in Shapes and Text Boxes, but not in Tables. You can put a rotated image into a table cell, but you won't be able to use the text in the image in any functions.
Here's the way I prefer for placing rotated text into a Table Cell.
Insert > Text Box
Type text into box
Size the text and set the box dimensions to your liking - not critical on the size, but the proportions are important
Click once on the box to select the object, not the text inside
Rotate the object in the direction you desire
Command-C to copy the object to the Clipboard
Switch to Preview.app
Command-N to make a PDF of the Clipboard Content
Command-C to place the PDF file on the clipboard
Switch back to Numbers
Command-V to paste it to the cell where you want it
It takes less time to do it than to tell about it.

I made an error in my sequence in the original post - now corrected.

Rotate text using java 1.1

Hi...i need to rotate text using only java 1.1...no Affine Transformations.
Does anyone ever had to do this?
Please give some ideas.
Thanks.

Hrm. You could always create an extension of Label's paint that provides the super method with a Graphics object and then, in your implementation, paint the rotation yourself...

How do you rotate text in numbers

I'm trying to rotate the text in header row by 90 degrees. Is this possible in Numbers?

You cannot rotate text in any cell of a table. There are a variety of technoques to work around this limitation:
1) rotate a text box with the header text in it:
2) copy the desired header text (which is rotated) then open Preview and create a new document from the clipboard. Then use the rectangular selection tool to surround one word, then copy, then paste that into one of the cells in you header:
Create new Preview doc from the clipboard contents:
Now copy words out of preview using the rectangular selection tool:
copy.
now select the cell where you want this text:
There are some other ways (which you can find by searching this forum).
Hope these help

I need to rotate my text in pages - in a template - not just a text box

I am trying to make labels in Pages using a template I downloaded from the place I bought the labels. Problem is I cannot rotate the text! And I cannot select the text box - it is not working. WHY PAGES WHY???? Does anyone know how to deal with this?

If you already designed a label art and need to rotate it to fit the label itself you can select all the elements from the design and select "group" then on the "format" tab of the Inspector you can rotate it. If you wish to print more than one label just copy, paste and move them to the label area. Hope this helps.
Can you also post a print screen so we can better understand what you are trying to achieve.

How can i make the text go vertically in numbers

How can I make the text vertical in numbers? I have merged the cells and cannot find an option for making it go vertical as opposed to horizontal.

I already gave two tools to fit this kind of needs.
tip #1 :

Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : write_vertically.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications :Numbers:

Saisir dans une cellule le mot à écrire verticalement puis le sélectionner.
ATTENTION, il ne faut pas sélectionner la cellule mais le mot qui doit apparaitre surligné.
Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “write_vertically”
Le script colle dans la cellule le mot apès avoir inséré un return entre tous les caractères.
Pour mon usage personnel j'associe un raccourci à ce script grace à FastScripts.

In a cell, type a word to write vertically then select it.
CAUTION, don’t select the cell but the word which must be highlighted.

The script insert in the cell the word after inserting a return between every characters.
For my own use, I link a shortcut to the script thank to FastScripts.

Missing rotated text in PDF created via FPDF

Hi guys,
I have a weird problem which is preventing some rotated text to be viewed in adobe reader, while every other reader like foxit, google pdf viewer and scrib are doing just fine!
if you create a flyer using following link
http://www.erupert.ca/classifieds/create_flyer/ad/32_1306248214
the generated PDF displays just fine in google document viewer but if I download and open the same in Adobe reader the pull tab text (text rorated 90 degrees) vanish, again the PDF is just fine in foxit reader as well!
What am I doing wrong, any ideas would be much appriciated.
Also here is the code to rotate text I'm using by extending the FPDF class
function Rotate($angle,$x=-1,$y=-1)

Hello anupam,
I know this is a particularly old thread, however i thought i'd post the solution here for others who may have been searching around for a solution to this very same problem and come across this thread.
As George has correctly stated it is an issue with the unbalanced q and Q operators. I recognise the provided piece of code, it is of course a snippet from a generation class such as FPDF or TCPDF or HTML2PDF, the error occurs when the rotation is not returned to 0 before finalising the document.
i.e. You would have used something like $pdf -> Rotate(270,60,50) or $this -> Rotate(270,60,50) where 270=the degree of rotation , 60=the x coordinate , 50=the y coordinate.
Once you've completed writing all your text, lines, images, cells you need to make sure to reset the rotate i.e. $pdf -> Rotate(0) prior to Outputting the pdf to screen or saving it as a file.

Rotating text without embedding fonts - how?

No doubt same or similar question was asked and most likely answered but I could not
find anything that would match...
I want to draw column headers of my ADG vertically. So, I need rotate column text 90 degree
and adjust position.
Is it true that it can be achieved with embedded font only? If it is true how can it be done for
Unicode code, which includes ranges for Japanese, Chinese, etc characters. The size of
swf is going to be huge. Several sites like this
http://www.forestandthetrees.com/2009/06/29/rotating-text-without-embedding-fonts/
claims that they have a solution for the problem without embedding fonts.
Note: I am still using Flex 3.3 SDK with no TLF. By the way, do TLF libraries work with
3.3 SDK.?
Thanks in advance

Draw your text onto a bitmap image (or take an ImageSnapshot of a Label), then rotate the image.

How to rotate text

I was told to restate my number's problem as I want to rotate text within a single cell. This is for grade book so the column label can be hidden along with other data.

ohsster,
I was also excited by iWorks, and I was planning to adopt it and try to wean myself from Office even before Numbers was announced. I figured I'd just use the Tables within Pages to do my spreadsheet functions, since all the same calculations are available there. After a month of working in iWork, it's obvious that it would be premature to un-install Office for Mac, but I'm still determined to make the switch and I believe that Apple will address the serious issues, like the speed problem, in short order. So, I'm still excited about being closer to shaking the Microsoft dependency.
Regarding your application, I don't know how large and complicated your design is, but I encourage you to try my suggestion just to get a feel for working with references that span sheets and tables. This, to me, is much easier in Numbers than in Excel. I tried cross-sheet referencing in Excel years ago and found it too complicated, but in Numbers it is as simple as pie. You can build your second table in the same sheet as your first table if you want to keep things close together for that phase, and then just drag the new table to a new sheet when you're done with it. To make a cell in the destination table mirror the entry in the source table, simply type an = sign in the destination cell and then click on the source cell. To replicate the reference in the first destination cell across the first row, highlight that cell and drag the fill handle across the row. Then, with the filled row highlighted, drag the fill handle down the sheet to populate as many rows as you need. This whole process takes only a few seconds. Now you have a copy of the source table that can be independently formatted, labeled and printed after you move it to it's own sheet. This is the Numbers equivalent of setting a Print Area in Excel, except on steroids.
I hope you don't give up!

Example -- double-click to rotate shape 36 degrees

This is my first attempt to cause Visio to handle double-click on a shape.
I need to rotate the shape 36 degrees each time it's double-clicked.
Here's what I have right now:
Enable developer tab in ribbon
Select shape
in developer tab, click "Show ShapeSheet"
In ShapeSheet, enable "Events" box to show
For "EventDblClick", enter the formula to handle double-clicks
Formula I'm trying:
=SETF(GetRef(Angle),MODULUS(GetVal(Angle)+36,360))
Result when I double-click:
"Shape protection, container, and/or layer properties prevent complete execution of this command."
However, I couldn't find any protection being applied to this shape. Ideas or suggestions? Pointers to existing solutions and walkthroughs welcome.
My goal: Create a specific shape which rotates by 36 degrees on each double-click, and export it as a stencil.

I eventually discovered the problem. It was a mistake of a someone new to this. Here's the correct formula, which works quite well:
=SETF(GetRef(Angle),ANG360(GetVal(Angle)+RAD(36)))
In a nutshell, I was confused because the display in the datasheet showed the value in degrees, even though it appears to have required the value in radians.
Live and learn!

In pages, how can I rotate text ?

In pages, how can I rotate text ?

The text needs to be in a TextBox which you can create from the ToolBar and the that can be rotated by control clicking near the top right corner of TextBox and dragging it around.
Alternatively click on the TextBox > Inspector > Metric > Rotate: enter value.
