I want to print string with certain angle like 45,90 as per user select.
It should start from x and y provided by user in millimeter.

I have already tried with translate transform and rotate transform but position of string printing is not same for different angle. e.g. if x=5mm and y=10mm with angle =0 then if I change only angle in this then position of string changed even I had not changed x and y co-ordinates.

Thank you for your time.

This is quite possible. You can rotate or skew any image. But you should tag the library you want to use. The answers will be very different for Forms, WPF and so on...

Solution 1

Try this:

C#

e.Graphics.Clear(SystemColors.Control);
e.Graphics.DrawString("Normal text", this.Font, SystemBrushes.ControlText, 10, 10);
e.Graphics.RotateTransform(90);
e.Graphics.DrawString("Tilted text", this.Font, SystemBrushes.ControlText, 10, -40);

By default the coordinate system has its origo in the top left corner of the surface, so that is the axis around which RotateTransform will rotate the surface.

its still changing position as per your code suggested, T should print with N...but its not..

Take care about this trivial issue by yourself. You did not specify what is "position" (relative to center, some corner, or anything else).

I voted 4, just because it would be good to mention the applicability of the code. It won't be for WPF, for example, where you can transform everything, not only graphics...
Note that OP did not specify what should be used, application type.
