**Inheritance:**
java.lang.Object
```
public class ShapeTextOrientation
```

Specifies orientation of text in shapes.

 **Examples:** 

Shows how to change orientation and rotation for data labels.

```

 Document doc = new Document();
 DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

 Shape shape = builder.insertChart(ChartType.COLUMN, 432.0, 252.0);
 ChartSeries series = shape.getChart().getSeries().get(0);
 ChartDataLabelCollection dataLabels = series.getDataLabels();

 // Show data labels.
 series.hasDataLabels(true);
 dataLabels.setShowValue(true);
 dataLabels.setShowCategoryName(true);

 // Define data label shape.
 dataLabels.getFormat().setShapeType(ChartShapeType.UP_ARROW);
 dataLabels.getFormat().getStroke().getFill().solid(Color.blue);

 // Set data label orientation and rotation for the entire series.
 dataLabels.setOrientation(ShapeTextOrientation.VERTICAL_FAR_EAST);
 dataLabels.setRotation(-45);

 // Change orientation and rotation of the first data label.
 dataLabels.get(0).setOrientation(ShapeTextOrientation.HORIZONTAL);
 dataLabels.get(0).setRotation(45);

 doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "Charts.LabelOrientationRotation.docx");
