UI_Button with rotated text or non graphical symbol ?

Nader Belal · ‎2019-04-10

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to create a UI_Button containing a rotated text or symbol (not image) ?

A good friend of mine have once told me that I´m so brute that I´m capable of creating a GDL script capable of creating GDLs.

As far as I know, it is not possible to rotate the text on a button or rotate the button itself.
You can only change the height and width of the button.

I don't think you can even change the font used in the UI, so even a rotated font (if you can find one) won't work.

UI_PICT_BUTTON will allow you to have any image you want, but it sounds like that is not what you are after.
