I have created a simple text line inside a layer. I want to set this to
display vertically along the page. Can't figure it out.
thanks

Do you mean
Vertically down the page?
L
i
k
e

t
h
i
s
Or
Horizontally along/across the page?
Like this

If the former it could be a bit difficult. I am not aware of a function that
will write text down the page, so it may a need a JS function to read each
character and wrote it to a new line. Possible, but a bit messy.

The example would be such that take a line of text and rotate it to the left
90 degrees so it reads from the bottom to the top. Does this make sense?
thanks

Now i am even more confused

Do you mean that this text
THIS IS MY TEXT
is to read like this
T
X
E
T

Y
M

S
I

S
I
H
T

??

Again, it may a need a JS function to read each character and write it to a
new line.
But doing it in reverse order would also be messy

Maybe someone will jump in here and say that there are functions to do it.

If not, it means some tricky JS code

Read the entire text.
Store it in a array as a string of characters
Read the array in reverse order
As each element is read:
Write the element
Add a line break

Fun progamming, I guess.
Do you want me to try doing it ?

You would have to create a image of the text.
