X (which GDK relies on in the version of GTK+ that you are almost > certainly using) provides no facilities for text rotation. this is not the full truth since X11R6 does support rotated glyphs, see http://www.faqs.org/faqs/x-faq/part7/section-45.html > i don't know if Pango, which GTK+ 1.3/2.0 uses for text can do a > better job on this. i have a feeling it can, but i am not sure. while the layers below Pango probably have this feature (at least FreeType2 allows to specify a transformation matrix), Pango itself has no API for rotations or other transformations.
