Support text rotation in LUA screen functions

[nekranox]

Currently it is not possible using the new LUA screen functions to rotate text. As a result, is it is not possible to have a screen in portrait orientation with text.

 

The only way to add text using the new functions is

addText(layer, font, text, x, y)

 

But the documentation states that this function does not support rotation

Text rotation is essential, I won't be able to convert my existing content over without it. Can this be added a priority?

 

Thanks

it could be...

--rotation: in radiants or  degrees [x,y,z]
addText(layer, font, text, x, y, [rotation])

Hi there !

We considered the text rotation, but was not possible some aspects. So we added full layer transformations support on Athena update, so you can use that to rotate your text.
