Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Diagonal Table Header

[jubairarifctg]

Hi there

I can create table with 5 columns with \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}

Thus, I get to have to 5 table header. But I want the table header to be diagonal, starting from bottom left to upper right. Google search wasn't of much help.

thanks for your help.

Cheers
Arif.

Hi Arif,

you could use the \rotatebox command provided by the graphicx package; take a look at the following example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

{\centering
\begin{tabular}{|p{1.8cm}|p{1.8cm}|p{1.8cm}|}
  \hline
  \rotatebox{15}{Header1} & \rotatebox{15}{Header2} & \rotatebox{15}{Header3}\\\hline
  column1a & column2a & column 3a\\
  column1b & column2b & column 3b\\\hline
\end{tabular}
}

\end{document}
