    upside down text?

    Is there an easy way to draw text upside? Right now i have the graphics object and using .DrawString, but i can't figure out how to make it draw mirrored or rotated. Thanks.

    pic is a bitmap object, you might be able to do it with a graphics object also. Not sure.

    pic.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipNone)

    There are a couple different RotateFlipTypes, go through them to figure out what you need.

    yeah, thats the only way i could see of doing it. It only 1 or 2 characters and the rectangle is prefedined so the best solution i could come up with was to create a seperate bitmap, draw the text on that bitmap, then flip the bitmap and draw it on to the screen.

    Check out my VBCodeBook.NET under Visual FX - Rotating Text.
