Rotation text

[duvaft]

Can you help me abuot the text rotation like the behaviour in InDesign (text and cursor rotated). Can yuo send me an example? If the text is rotate also the cursor will be rotated. Thanks.:doh::doh::doh::doh:

Where do you want rotate text (screen, control and etc.)? Best regards, Eugene Pustovoyt

following is the CreateFontIndirect example in msdn. HFONT FAR PASCAL MyCreateFont( void ) {    CHOOSEFONT cf;    LOGFONT lf;    HFONT hfont;    // Initialize members of the CHOOSEFONT structure.    cf.lStructSize = sizeof(CHOOSEFONT);    cf.hwndOwner = (HWND)NULL;    cf.hDC = (HDC)NULL;    cf.lpLogFont = &lf;    cf.iPointSize = 0;    cf.Flags = CF_SCREENFONTS;    cf.rgbColors = RGB(0,0,0);    cf.lCustData = 0L;    cf.lpfnHook = (LPCFHOOKPROC)NULL;    cf.lpTemplateName = (LPSTR)NULL;    cf.hInstance = (HINSTANCE) NULL;    cf.lpszStyle = (LPSTR)NULL;    cf.nFontType = SCREEN_FONTTYPE;    cf.nSizeMin = 0;    cf.nSizeMax = 0;    cf.lfOrientation = 180; // specify angle that you want.    // Display the CHOOSEFONT common-dialog box.    ChooseFont(&cf);    // Create a logical font based on the user's    // selection and return a handle identifying    // that font.    hfont = CreateFontIndirect(cf.lpLogFont);    return (hfont); } Enjoy:rose: Anderson Sheen (exteide@gmail.com) The Extension IDE: http://www.exteide.com

Try this:

cf.lfEscapement = cf.lfOrientation = 180; // specify angle that you want.

Or to rotate basically anything at all (not just text):

CPaintDC dc(this);
 
int OldGMode = SetGraphicsMode(dc.m_hDC, GM_ADVANCED);
static const double pi = 4*atan(1.0); // Gives up pi.
static const double a = 30*(pi/180); // Angle in radians.
XFORM xf = {cos(a), sin(a), -sin(a), cos(a), 0, 0};
SetWorldTransform(dc.m_hDC, &xf);
 
int OldBkMode = dc.SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
dc.TextOut(0, 0, _T("This text is rotated."));
dc.SetBkMode(OldBkMode);
dc.Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200);
 
SetGraphicsMode(dc.m_hDC, OldGMode);
