32Demo Text Rotation Mode
43=======================
54
5+ The axes' method `~.axes.Axes.text` takes an argument ``rotation_mode`` that
6+ controls the alignment and rotation of the text. If ``rotation_mode`` is
7+ ``None`` or ``default`` the text will first be rotated and then aligned
8+ according to the horizontal and vertical alignments (``ha`` and ``va`` in the
9+ example). If ``rotation_mode`` is ``anchor`` the text is aligned before rotation.
