<p>Are you trying to rotate text? If so, try this plugin:</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Hi Jfranken,</p>
<p>I tried to use the provided pulgin but am getting null pointer exception when running the report.</p>
<p>Also one of the way that i tried to use is writting CSS as follows:</p>
<div><p style ="transform: rotate(-90deg)"></div>
<div>Limited</div>
<div></p></div>
<div>but it didnt worked.</div>
<div>Am not getting why this is not working since if i write</div>
<div>
<div><p style ="color: red"></div>
<div>Limited</div>
<div></p></div>
<div>works fine.</div>
</div>

<p>Can you provide the stack trace with the null pointer exception you are getting when using the plugin?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Regarding the CSS, I'm guessing you did this within an HTML text element?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BIRT uses tidy to automatically clean up HTML and HTML with CSS written inline like that tends to have the CSS removed by the tidy process. Instead, you can use java script to hook the element and apply the CSS property. That will prevent tidy from stripping it out.</p>
