On the Common tab of the Format Editor, you can use the text rotation options to vertically align the fields and text-based objects on your report. You can rotate text 90 or 270 degrees.
To rotate text
- Right-click the report object and select Format Field.
- In the Common tab, select the degree of rotation in the Text Rotation field.
Note
- When you select a text rotation of 90 degrees, the text shifts 90 degrees in a counter-clockwise direction.
- If text rotation is left at 0 degrees, your report is horizontally formatted.
- For text rotation of text-based objects, the Can Grow option that prevents the truncation of text inside an object is automatically cleared. For more information on the Can Grow option, see Preventing Truncated Text.
- Vertically formatted text that spans over the edge of the page cannot be displayed as part of your report.
