Could MATLAB allow text boxes within figures to be rotated?

I would like to be able to rotate uicontrol text boxes by a specified number of degrees.

The ability to rotate uicontrol text boxes is not available in MATLAB 7.0 (R14).

To work around this issue, use a text object and set the Rotation property to the desired rotation in degrees. An example is shown below:

plot(1:10)

t=text(0.5,0.5,'Button Label','Rotation',30,'FontSize',14)
