Vertical text (Was: Re: kmix maintanence - please direct bugreports to me)

[Joseph Wenninger]

Hi

That piece of code is not that good. I used something like that for a
long time in konquerors sidebar. You lose anti aliasing. You have to
draw the text into a pixmap without rotation and than draw that pixmap
rotated onto the screen.

Kind regards
