How to rotate the axis title

ROOT
1

Hello,

So by default, the title of the y-axis is rotated by 90 degree counter-clockwise.

Is there any way to rotate it back so that the x-axis title and the y-axis title are oriented the same direction?

Thanks a lot!

I might be wrong, but I think it’s not possible, AFAICT you can only rotate it by 180 degrees. But maybe @couet will tell more once he’s back

You can clear the title and use TLatex class to put custom label. Perhaps the easiest way of doing this?

{
   auto h = new TH1F("h","h",10,0,1);
   h->Draw();
   auto Title = new TLatex(-0.05, 0, "Custom Y Title");
   Title->SetTextAngle(90.);
   Title->Draw();
}
