I've tried this approach, basically adding rotation support to the QgsMapToPixel class. With such support I can see the map rotated as requested while "horizontal" labels remain horizontal. But "parallel" labels are completely off (and pretty funny). > > Currently the composer supports rotated maps, but it's a bit of a > > hack.

For "parallel" labels, it is actually good that they rotate with the map. I guess there would need to be some rotation knowledge at various levels for things to be flexible enough. --strk; () ASCII ribbon campaign -- Keep it simple ! /\ http://strk.keybit.net/rants/ascii_mails.txt _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
