Re: [Gnuplot-info] rotate labels by data column

[Grothausmann, R. Dr. <gro...@mh...>]

Many thanks Ethan for the quick implementation. Works great and has no problems 
with SVGs:

Comparing the vector arrow heads and the label placement in my test project, 
reveals a slight displacement for 180° rotations which decreases in both 
directions towards 0°/360°. I wasn't able to compensate these with offsets.

Thanks again for the quick feature implementation.
