How to rotate the font in Plots.jl

How do you rotate the font for xlabel or ylabel in the Julia plotting package Plots.jl?

fo = font(10, "Courier")
fo.rotation = 90
plot(randn(10), xtickfont=fo) # Does nothing
Solution

  • The keyword arguments to rotate the fonts are

    plot(..., xrotation = 45) # For 45 degree rotation
plot(..., yrotation = 45)
plot(...,  rotation = 45) # Rotates both x and y fonts
