[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #33118] text rotation fails for angles other than 90 deg

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #33118 (project octave):

Confirmed that this is a rendering issue as printing works correctly.


plot (1:10);
text (2, 6, "Hello World", "Rotation", 45);
print -dpdf rot_test.pdf


Good work by Andreas in identifying the problem file and area.  It looks to me
like we are maintaining the pixels in an Octave uint8NDarray already.  This
means we could probably just use a rotation matrix in Octave rather than
calling out to FreeType.  I don't mess with the graphics area much, however,
so someone else will have to do any coding in this area.
