Hello,

It is possible to rotate a plot 90 degrees before plotting on screen?

Best regards,

Probably not, but what are you trying to do that requires rotating a plot=
?  That can be done post output with many devices.  So the question is wh=
ether it is possible to rotate on-screen terminal windows.  Not that I've=
 seen.  Can you give us an example, i.e., point to a link somewhere?

Depends on what terminal type you want to use.
If you don't need mousing, just screen display then you have at
least 2 options:

=46or PostScript output you can switch Landscape/Portrait either
in the plot itself or in the viewer:

  set term post landscape
  set output '|gv -'

=46or PNG you can rotate to any angle you please

  set term png
  set output '|display -rotate 270 png:-'

But I don't know of a way to rotate the output of terminals
x11 or windows so that it's mousable.

Depends.   What type of "on screen" is that?  I.e. what platform, wha=
t=20
choice of 'set terminal' in gnuplot?
