Hello Kay,
the rotation can be achieved with 'set xtics rotate by 30'
I did not know about xticlabels, suggested by Abhinav - very useful!
My preferred gnuplot reference:
http://security.riit.tsinghua.edu.cn/~bhyang/ref/gnuplot/index-e.html
The original site seems down unfortunately
(http://t16web.lanl.gov/Kawano/gnuplot/).
Best,
Tim

Dear Gnuplot users,
you all know the crystallographic tables which have a column of
resolution values, and columns of crystallographic indicators (R,
I/sigma, ... whatever). Assuming that I want to plot the indicator
in column 2 as a function of resolution, I can simply say
plot 'table.dat' us 2
but the problem is now that I would like to have the resolution
values as labels, so instead of 0 1 2 3 4 5 ... I would like to
have 30.6 5.72 3.90 3.17 2.64 ... or so. Furthermore these labels
might be fairly wide, so I would like to rotate them, by (say) 30°
or even 90°. In the past, I seem to remember that I have manually
positioned the labels, as individual text strings. This can be done
for a single plot ... but then again, we live in the 3rd millenium
and there must be a better way. Can Gnuplot take the labels from
the file and put them into the right place? Could anyone please
share the Gnuplot magic for doing so?
thanks,
Kay
