    @jsulm is there any other way to rotate QLabel? Or just an image inside QLabel.

    Hi
    Yes, you can paint to a pixmap and set that to QLabel.

    QPixmap pix(500,500);
    QPainter paint (&pix);
    .. rotate and draw text..
    label->addPixmap(pix);

      Hi,

      Or you can use QImage::transformed passing it a rotation matrix.

        Okey I found a solution for me

        QPixmap pixmap(*ui->label->pixmap());
        QMatrix rm;
        rm.rotate(50);
        pixmap = pixmap.transformed(rm);
        ui->label->setPixmap(pixmap);
        

        but the problem ist now, Im trying to draw the pixmap every time at the different rotate which was saved at mine vector. what is happening, it´s just rotate further

          Well the normal solution is to keep the original unrotated bitmap and
          assign a copy to the label. Then when new rotate is need , the original image is used
          and not the already rotated version.

          You can also rotate it back, and rotate to a new angle but that often
          distorts the image slowly.

              Hi,

              Where does your QPixmap come from in the first place ?

                Wait i just realized. you are just doing it to rotate text right ?
                Not the actual image ?
                So only the text matters. so u can just clear it and redraw text.

                QPixmap pixmap(*ui->label->pixmap());
                pixmap.fill( Qr::red ); // just clear old
                QMatrix rm;
                rm.rotate(50);
                pixmap = pixmap.transformed(rm);
                ...drawtext..
                ui->label->setPixmap(pixmap);

                  @mrjj 0_1524812883275_Download (1).png seems like it is a text, instead .png file

                    So you have 2.png in a resource file ?
                    alo, the goal is to rotate text, so the image has nothing u want to show. Just used to draw the text on ?

                        Ok, so the the goal is to rotate 2.png ? and not text.
                        Anyhow, just add a QPixmap to .h and save the
                        2.png to it.
                        Then when you rotate always use the copy and not the already rotated one.
