I have a project which will need to present a grid layout in which the
columns are narrow but will be identified with text labels.

Ideally these would be at a 45-degree angle, so each could be clearly
associated with the column they relate to but still be reasonably
readable.  But at worst I'd accept a fully-vertical orientation.


Richard,

This is probably too much overhead for you but you can write text along any path using (you guess it) Turtle Graphics.

Run

go url "http://www.jamesphurley.com/TextAlongPath.rev";

in the message window and look at the last card.

If this is an option, I can clear out the unnecessary baggage, i.e. those TG commands not used for this particular application.
