Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ rotating | Turn one 'sidewaystable' for 180°

[amoz]

I have a 'sidewaystable' that ends up on an even page and faces out. Reviewers are asking for that particular table to be rotated 180 degrees. I have been searching around on the net but was unable to find a working solution. Any clues? Many thanks.

The rotating package supports an option to turn all floats of this kind into the same direction.

Code: Select all

\usepackage[figuresright]{rotating}

More information can be found in the manual. Package manuals are always better sources for information than everything else.


Best regards

Thank you for the (very) quick reply! I had been misled by the (counter)clockwise options of the rotating package, which were of no help.

Problem solved, and I appreciate the advise to dig out package manuals before anything else.

I use "LyX" to write in latex.
I have attached the code from Stefan and I am not getting the error that I had gotten before, however now I turn the figures but look like that I am doing nothing. Any ideas?

Thank a lot. Congratulations for this web page!
