public:  
   void DrawRotated3dText( 
       Graphics^ g, 
      String^ text, 
      Rectangle^ destRect, 
      Int32 angle, 
      SpecialEffectsTextStyle^ textStyle,

      Font^ textFont, 
      Image^ foreImage 
   )

def DrawRotated3dText(self,g,text,destRect,angle,textStyle,textAlignment,xDepth,yDepth,textColor,shadowColor,hiliteColor,textFont,foreImage):

Parameters

g
The destination Graphics object.

text
Text string.

destRect
Rectangle to be used as the display destination rectangle.

angle
Text angle, in tenths of degrees.

textStyle
Text style. Use this parameter to control the style and justification of the three-dimensional text. For valid values refer to SpecialEffectsTextStyle.

textAlignment
Text Alignment, For valid values refer to SpecialEffectsTextAlignmentFlags.

xDepth
Horizontal shadow position.

yDepth
Vertical shadow position.

textColor
Value that specifies the text color.

shadowColor
Value that specifies the shadow color.

hiliteColor
Value that specifies the border color.

textFont
Font object that will be used for drawing the 3D text.

foreImage
Image object that will be used to place an image (such as a gradient) on the surface of the three-dimensional text. Use null to paint the color specified in textColor.

Remarks

Use the textStyle and textAlignment parameters to control the style and justification of the three-dimensional text. Use the textFont parameter to place an image (such as a gradient) on the surface of the three-dimensional text.
