Make possible to rotate the column header so that they appear vertical. It's very usefull for the case that I have a number of columns and the names of each column is a rather long text, hence it makes the matrix's width large even though the actual cells just hold a number. Format-wise, it can be much more pleasant if the column heades could have appeared vertically to save space rather than the default horizontal.

Yes this would be a good thing to conserve space.

Would make the Matrix so much more useful.

It would be nice when this feature would be added. Scrolling can be pain with a lot of coloumns

Hi All,



If you go to Format / Values turn on "Show on rows". and you'll have it.

Must have for executive type summaries where you want to pack a lot of information on one table/page with color coding. BTW, thank you for conditional formatting update much appreciated!
