Vertical or oblique X annotations

[Jonathan Chenal]

Dear colleagues,

I am a very beginner for GMT, and I need some help from you. My last
e-mail (last thursday) maybe was not very clear, so I have to try to
explain again, and more clearly...
I have to extract many data from several files, and to plot them. My
strategy is to launch scripts in Perl to pre-analyze them, and to draw
the approximately best X-Y plot of these data. But my X-data have quite
big values, or grow quickly, so that all the X annotations superimpose
(see attached).

Here is the psxy command used to make this plot.
psxy -P -R-1/999992.773952/29637178.9224002/29638086.9727566
-Ba25000:"EPOQUE (s)":/50:"GIOVE-Aaaa":WSen -JX16/7 -X4 -Y20 -Sc0.01
-W1/0/0/0 -K GIOVE-Aaaa.dat > GIOVE-Aaaa.ps

My question is : is it possible to turn X annotations with an angle
alpha, or to put them vertical ?


Thanks


Jonathan

Jonathan,

I'm afraid that is not possible. At least, I don't find it on gmtdefaults
We'll take that as a feature request.
