I have followed instructions on how to find the rtconfig.txt file, and I have found the section dealing with the "Strip Just the track name" Mixer Panel Layout:-
Code:
Layout "ee --- Strip Just the track name" "strip"

; -------------------- WARNING : this layout contains a hack ---------------------

set pad [4] ; the padding between elements
set n_border [8] ; nominal border top and bottom
set e_size [0 0 19 19] ; the base element size [0 0 height width]
; The 'variance' settings below work as follows: - all elements take on the base element size unless varied here
; - the first number is the variance in width
; - the second number is the variance in height
; - the third number is the variance in padding (so make it the negative of the pad number if you want the gap gone)

I can't see anything there which set any text rotation. So I am assuming that I should be looking elsewhere.
