[reportlab-users] rotated text (90?) in a table cell

[Paulino]

Maybe it's better to send the entire script:

from reportlab.platypus.flowables import Flowable
from reportlab.platypus import SimpleDocTemplate, Paragraph, Table
from reportlab.lib.units import cm
from reportlab.lib import colors
from reportlab.lib.styles import getSampleStyleSheet
stylesheet=getSampleStyleSheet()
normal = stylesheet['Normal']

class TTR(Flowable): #TableTextRotate
    '''Rotates a tex in a table cell.'''
    def __init__(self, text ):
        Flowable.__init__(self)
        self.text=text
    def draw(self):
        canvas = self.canv
        canvas.rotate(90)
        canvas.drawString( 0, -1, self.text)

doc=SimpleDocTemplate('vertical.pdf')

cli=Paragraph( 'Clientes de cobranca muito duvidosa', style=normal)

data=[ [ 'codigo', TTR('nivel'), 'descricao'],
        [ '11', '0', 'Caixa'],
        [ '21', '1', cli ] ]

st=[( 'ALIGN',(1,0), (1, -1), 'CENTER' ),
    ('INNERGRID', (0,0), (-1,-1), 0.25, colors.blue ),
    ('BOX', (0,0), (-1,-1), 0.25, colors.blue ),
    ('VALIGN', (0,0), (-1,-1), 'MIDDLE' ) ]

tb=Table(data, colWidths=(40, 40, 100), style=st )

story=[tb]

doc.build(story)
