Any way to place text at 90 degree angle?

#1

Hi everyone,

I have an app I am writing that uses the storyboard and in it I have a small game which has to run as landscape only. The rest of the scenes are portrait so I had to change the graphics and the physics gravity that someone suggested on here and works great. Now I wanted to add some text and don’t see how to set it to landscape. My only thought is to use graphics for stuff like score and all.

Thanks

can’t you just rotate the text with the rotate property?

Or put everything in a group and rotate that group 90 degrees. [import]uid: 100901 topic_id: 36696 reply_id: 144984[/import]

Thanks! I guess I missed the rotate property. I will give it a try.

Just to clarify, the property is .rotation, not .rotate. We wouldn’t want you to type in the latter and wonder why nothing is happening. :wink:
