EDM xyGraphClass yLabel displaying backwards

[Carl Schumann <schumann@fnal.gov>]

Hi,

We are upgrading from a 3-year old version of EDM to the current 
version.   For the xyGraphClass we find that the yLabel is displayed 
properly by the old version of EDM but backwards by the new version of 
EDM.  E.g., "current(mA)" becomes ")Am(tnerruc".   The spacing between 
letters is also off with the new version as well.    I did some initial 
investigation of the new EDM and also compared old and new EDM code.   
The relevant routine within EDM's source is 
xyGraphClass::drawYlabel(...).   From the old version the code for 
moving along the y-axis ...
>     lY = plotAreaY + ( plotAreaH + lW ) / 2;
>     for ( i=0; i<strlen(label); i++ ) {
>       lY -= inc;
From the new version the code for moving along the y-axis ...
>     lY = plotAreaY + ( plotAreaH - lW ) / 2;
>     for ( i=0; i<strlen(label); i++ ) {
>       lY += inc;
The difference in code is what accounts for the backward text.   So now 
I am wondering what to do about this issue.   We don't really want to 
maintain our own version of EDM with code changes.   Guidance please.   
Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Carl Schumann
