painter88 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Long time Paint .Net user. Love the app. I know how to rotate text (select, move tool, shift right click or ctrl + shift + z). Also, it's possible to rotate each individual character, but it's very slow and tricky to get right. To do it well, I'd have to create a layer for each letter. That's a lot of work to simply change text orientation from horizontal to vertical. I want a quick way to get this: testing to this: t e s t i n g This is for a graphic label. Thanks!

david.atwell Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 There's no automatic way. The best way to do it is the same way you've done it here on the forum: Hit the "enter" key after every letter. A note, though: this impacts readability terribly. From a design viewpoint, this is a bad idea. :-) But that's how to do it if you insist. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...
