I am creating dynamic labels from labtalk script.

I have series of data points to label and I want the labels to be rotated 90 degrees.

I can get all of my labels where I want them no problem.

I just can not rotate them

Here is the generic script I am using:

label -a 91 2 -n Mass1 91;
set Mass1 -tr 91;

This should create a label "91" named Mass1 at the x,y coordinate 91,2. The label is created but not rotated.

Any help would be of great assistance. Thank you.

Mass1.rotate = 90;

where '90' is degrees rotated.

you can then drop the set statement.

That did the charm.

I wonder why those commands are not in the help file. I did not know that object had methods (I am fereing to it as they would be called in VB....)

LabTalk is made up of both commands and object methods and properties. You will want to look at the Object Reference chapter of the LabTalk Help.
