Hi,

I am making a tertis robot, and I use the screen in vertical mode. (the buttons on the left side.)
I was wondering if there was a block that could display text rotated 90 degrees. Otherwise I should make my own my block with my own font, which would take a long time and would slow down the program a bit. Maybe there is a way to do that easier?

Thanks!

I don't think I've heard of such a thing. If you're not set on using NXT-G (or labview?) then I recommend you try NXC, where implementing such a feature should be very easy.

One solution is to use RIC or image files to display the info. Assuming there are specific things you want to display, you may be better of with some graphics, than text.

For Monster Chess, the NXTs are basically mounted sideways, so I made some pictures to show the robot's position in large, sideways characters.

I don't know of any NXT-G block but there is an advanced NXC function which provides this feature, IIRC.
