Ok, attaching a sample document.
What I want is for the square with the text 'moon' to stay like it is
but the text in it ('moon', duh) should be rotated 90 degrees
counter-clockwise. So that the whole thing looks like the squares with
'star' and 'sun' in them but rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
As mentioned before, neither inkscape 0.42, firefox 1.5 or sodipodi
0.34-0.1 or GLIPSGrafitti1.4 manages to render the thing correctly (or
as I would expect) on ubuntu 5.11
When I try to accomplish the same thing in the programs mentioned they
all use a transform matrix instead, but frankly I don't understand that
one at all. If you could point me to somewhere where I could have it
explained in a easier way than at
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/coords.html#EstablishingANewUserSpace maybe
that'll be the way to go.
