Hi I want to include a greek letter (micro) in a legend in a 3D plot in Gizmo. I used the annotation tool to write the legend, but I need to change the fixed angle to aline the legend to to the graph. This makes the letters not perfectly alined, is there a way to avoid this problem? I have attached the graph. all the best, Ann-Sofi

It's not perfect, but you can enter a small rotation angle in the Annotation Position tab's Fixed Angle (degrees) field.
(This is not in the Gizmo Annotations panel, but Igor's Modify Annotation dialog.)
Type in a value of about -10 or -15.
It won't be quite the right orientation, as it is positioned in only "flat space", but it'll be close.
The "right" solution will come with Igor 7 which should support Unicode text in the Gizmo labels if all goes well.

Hi again
This is what I did, I put in an angle of -5, but the letters look a little bit "jumpy", not aligned to eachother, as you can see in the graph. But as I understand from your reply this is the best I can get.
Thank you for your reply though. Looking forward to version 7!
all the best,
