[jira] Updated: (PIVOT-564) Configurable Tab text orientation

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-564?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Greg Brown updated PIVOT-564:
-----------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.0)
         Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

I think the first suggestion (wrapping every letter) would look strange. I have never seen a UI that does this.

I have seen UIs that use the second approach, but they tend to waste a lot of screen real estate and (IMO) don't look very good. So I don't personally think that either of these changes would be a good idea.

> When displaying tabs on the left or right side (vs. top/bottom), then the tab text is
> turned 90 degrees (counter-) clockwise.
> It would be nice if this were configurable, so that the text "Foobar" appears as "F\no\no\nb\na\nr", i.e.:
> F
> o
> o
> b
> a
> r
