This article provides a method for displaying rotated text on a canvas in [[Java ME]]. The idea is to create an empty image, write the text on it and display it, rotated.

<code java>
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.game.Sprite;

public class MyCanvas extends Canvas { public void paint(Graphics g) { //The text that will be displayed String s=”java”; //Create the blank image, specifying its size Image img=Image.createImage(50,50); //Create an instance of the image’s Graphics class and draw the string to it Graphics gr=img.getGraphics(); gr.drawString(s, 0, 0, Graphics.TOP|Graphics.LEFT); //Display the image, specifying the rotation value. For example, 90 degrees g.drawRegion(img, 0, 0, 50, 50, Sprite.TRANS_ROT90, 0, 0, Graphics.TOP|Graphics.LEFT); }
}
</code>
