Text rotation in QPainter

[acpRobert]

Can I rotate text in the QPainter of a QFrame?

I was able to rotate the painter but that gets a bit complicated. I've made a QFrame that represents the Y-axis of a chart and I'd like to put the label name rotated 90 degrees.

I've been using PyQt4 for about a week and have been really happy with the ease of use, and dynamite functionality but this has me stuck -- it's got to be simple but I can't find the info.

Thanks ,

Rob

I'm not familiar with PyQt but I suppose the API should be close to that of Qt so QPainter should expose several methods to transform its coordinate system which will allow you to draw text any way you want :

• QPainter::rotate(qreal)
• QPainter::scale(qreal, qreal)
• QPainter::shear(qreal, qreal)
