When trying to follow the advise in the refs, I've run into a
problem. The draw function has an option for Vertical Text.
In fact, this will not help you: it refers to rotating a whole line
of text in the drawing.
By default, it's not visible in the drawing toolbar. When I attempt
to make it visible (check the box), my screen flashes quickly and
then the drawing toolbar remains the same. Going back to see what
is in the visible toolbar, vertical text is not checked.
For this to be available, you need to have support for Asian
languages enabled. Tick the box at Tools | Options... | Language
Settings | Languages | Enhanced language support | Enabled for Asian
languages. You will then see the button you describe.
I trust this helps.
