[Moose-dev] Rotating labels around a circular shape

Hi, I'm trying to understand the code behind the figure here to rotate labels: So, I made a minimal example to start with, here (code is at http://ws.stfx.eu/N6ZG4BAIBO00 ) Now I would like to rotate the text to made it look like the first image. I presume that the code that made this possible for the first case is this one: ==================== RTBundleBuilder>>createLabelFor: e view: aView | lbl | lbl := label elementOn: e model. self interaction setUpElement: lbl. aView add: lbl. e addCallback: (TRTranslationCallback new block: [ | angle | angle := (e position - center ) theta. lbl translateTo: e position+((lbl trachelShape notRotatedWidth/2) * (angle cos @ angle sin)). angle := angle radiansToDegrees. angle := angle + ((angle between: 90 and: 270) ifTrue: [ 180 ] ifFalse: [ 0 ]). lbl trachelShape angleInDegree: angle ] ). e translateTo: e position. ==================== but I can not quite understand the lines lbl translateTo: e position+((lbl trachelShape notRotatedWidth/2) * (angle cos @ angle sin)). and angle := angle + ((angle between: 90 and: 270) ifTrue: [ 180 ] ifFalse: [ 0 ]). Could some body explain me how to incorporate rotation to the first basic example at http://ws.stfx.eu/N6ZG4BAIBO00 (second image of this mail). Thanks, Offray
