Use this field-level keyword to rotate any text contained in the field.
The format of the keyword is:
TXTRTT(field-rotation)
The field-rotation parameter is required and controls the rotation of the field. Valid values are 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees.
Specify DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) on the CRTPRTF command when TXTRTT is specified in the file. If DEVTYPE is changed to anything other than *AFPDS, the keyword is ignored and a warning message is issued at print time.
Option indicators are valid for this keyword.
CHRSIZ is handled as graphic font and cannot be used with the field-level keyword TXTRTT.
Example 1
The following example shows how to specify the TXTRTT keyword.
|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8

A FLD05 10 35 15TXTRTT(90)
A*
A R REC2
A FLD06 7S 2 TXTRTT(270)
A POSITION(6.5 13.8)
A
FLD05 in REC1 is rotated 90 degrees.
FLD06 in REC2 is rotated 270 degrees.
Example 2
The following example shows how to specify the TXTRTT keyword.
|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8

R REC1
FLD05 16 3 5TXTRTT(0)
*
R REC2
FLD06 16 TXTRTT(270)
POSITION(6 7)
Record 1 (REC1) field 5 (FLD05), shows the coding using the row/column method of positioning. Record 2 (REC2) field 6 (FLD06), shows the coding using the absolute method of positioning.
The following diagram shows:
- The position of FLD05 in REC1 with the row/column method of positioning. Rotation is 0 degrees.
- The position of FLD06 in REC2 with the absolute method of positioning. Rotation is 270 degrees.
Scale and position should not be considered in this diagram.
