Rotate

rotate

Rotates content without affecting layout.

Rotates an element by a given angle. The layout will act as if the element was not rotated unless you specify reflow: true.

Example

#stack(
  dir: ltr,
  spacing: 1fr,
  ..range(16)
    .map(i => rotate(24deg * i)[X]),
)

#rotate(
  angle,
  origin: alignment,
  reflow: bool,
  body
) -> content

Parameters

• angle:
  • description: The amount of rotation. typst #rotate(-1.571rad)[Space!]
  • type: angle
  • default: 0deg
• origin:
  • description: The origin of the rotation. If, for instance, you wanted the bottom left corner of the rotated element to stay aligned with the baseline, you would set it to bottom + left instead. typst #set text(spacing: 8pt) #let square = square.with(width: 8pt) #box(square()) #box(rotate(30deg, origin: center, square())) #box(rotate(30deg, origin: top + left, square())) #box(rotate(30deg, origin: bottom + right, square()))
  • type: alignment
  • default: center + horizon
• reflow:
  • description: Whether the rotation impacts the layout. If set to false, the rotated content will retain the bounding box of the original content. If set to true, the bounding box will take the rotation of the content into account and adjust the layout accordingly. typst Hello #rotate(90deg, reflow: true)[World]!
  • type: bool
  • default: false
• body:
  • description: The content to rotate.
  • type: content
  • default: None
