[bit.listserv.sas-l] Graphics Vertical Axis Label

clairec@EBAY.SUN.COM (Claire Castell) (02/08/90)

I suspect this is easy for someone out there:
I would like my verical axis label to be up and down on the side
of some graphs and I know to do this I specify some combination
of the ANGLE=  and ROTATE= options described in the F.M. (SAS/GRAPH 6.03)
However, I can't seem to come up with the right combination to do this
and and I'm spending too much time on it.(whine)

	V
	E
	R
	T
	I
	C
	A
	L

	A
	X
	I
	S
		HORIZONTAL  AXIS

Thanks for your support.

   Claire,
     I don't believe that both A= and R= are necessary.  Try just
     R=90.  I struggled with this, too, but I needed my axis label
     to be sideways, so you'd have to turn the page to read it.
     That took just A=90.  If I remember right, in my struggles
     I came up with what you want, and I was using simply R=90.
     Some days are just like that, eh?
