words alignment in text is not good while drawing text by rotating the painter

[Bikram Shishodia]

Hi,
I am drawing text by rotating the painter to 45 degree or any. Then the text alignment is not good.
I am using following code:
painter.rotate(45);
painter.drawText(QRectF(x,y,DEFAULT_TRACK_LEN, HEIGHT),ZERO,m_TrackNotes.toUpper());
painter.resetTransform();
For output,See the image below.

However drawing text horizontally is good, See the Image:

Anyone help please.

I'm not sure I see what the problem is. I can however propose the alternative of printing with the non-rotated painter on a transparent QPixmap instead of directly on screen and then use drawPixmap with a rotated painter to put it on screen.

I think it's about the "s" characters, they fall quite visibly below the line of text.

@VRonin
Compare the letters alignment of the text in rotated painter and non-rotated painter. You will see some letters are down and some letters are up in the rotated painter text.
However, I will try the alternative suggested.
Thanks
