Richard,
check out #1264, dated all the way back in 2/2004. It's an enhancement
request for the ability to rotate and flip all objects including buttons and
fields. This is a feature I could have benefited from many, many times.
I've added my 5 votes.

I have a project which will need to present a grid layout in which the
columns are narrow but will be identified with text labels.
Ideally these would be at a 45-degree angle, so each could be clearly
associated with the column they relate to but still be reasonably
readable. But at worst I'd
Thank you Richmond!
Exactly this same idea came to my mind too and then I saw your reply.
Experimenting right now.
All the best,

Have just done a "quick-n-dirty" re unicode symbols:
http://richmond.b0x.com/
just hit the button that says "UNICODE REFERENCE"
and the full panoply of non-alphabetic symbols that
lie beyond the ASCII tables in Unicode which you
can employ in your Runtime Revolution stacks
will be revealed.

Hi,
Reading this thread in Nabble, i just noticed that

Cool. That seems to work. Re the incremental save part -- if I am
doing a "put (whatever) into URL..." and the URL specifies the same
file name and path, then shouldn't it just be overwriting the file
anyway each time? I would think that the "put into URL" form calls on
system routines that
If one could be bothered one could probably draw up a table
of unicode references to characters such as -, + and so on that
caused cross-platofrm problems.

Actually, RTF documents are pretty much on-par with native Word documents as
far as features are concerned, and tables definitely work - perhaps not in
TextEdit or WordPad ; but if you have a full Word version, it should be just
fine.

The Word file format is binary, and may contain checksums that will not add up
when you replace something in it. It's better to save the Word file as an RTF
document (as this is not a binary, but text-based file format) and fill that up
instead.

Josep, not sure what you are doing. Is that you are trying to print bar code
labels, when you already have the fonts installed?
Or are you trying to use the bar codes by having Rev react to receiving
those codes?
