This should be supported now.<br><br>Qt supports rotations at the view using methods like scale, rotate, etc. Most of the work was supporting this in conjunction with the rescaling performed by our special PlotView class. When using geometry rescale mode (the default, and desirable for your use-case) you'll need to tell the PlotView to update the scene geometry by calling the updateSceneGeometry() method.<br>

Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I still feel lost in the Qt sea, but I believe it should be very easy<br>
to rotate a layer by 90 degrees, and I feel it is something like<br>
qdeviceTransform(), but I just don't know how to use this function.<br>
Can anyone give me an example? e.g. switch x and y in a scatter plot<br>
(without really switching the values of x and y)<br>
<br>
This can reduce the efforts on considering the direction of a plot,<br>
being horizontal or vertical; in my par-coords plots, I did this on<br>
the R level long ago. Maybe that is a waste of time.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Yihui<br>
