Vertical (rotated) label in Android

Question

I need 2 ways of showing vertical label in Android:

1. Horizontal label turned 90 degrees counterclockwise (letters on the side)
2. Horizontal label with l

Answer 1

Following Pointer Null's answer, I've been able to center the text horizontally by modifying the onDraw method this way:

@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas){
    TextPaint textPaint = getPaint();
    textPaint.setColor(getCurrentTextColor());
    textPaint.drawableState = getDrawableState();
    canvas.save();
    if(topDown){
        canvas.translate(getWidth()/2, 0);
        canvas.rotate(90);
    }else{
        TextView temp = new TextView(getContext());
        temp.setText(this.getText().toString());
        temp.setTypeface(this.getTypeface());
        temp.measure(0, 0);
        canvas.rotate(-90);
        int max = -1 * ((getWidth() - temp.getMeasuredHeight())/2);
        canvas.translate(canvas.getClipBounds().left, canvas.getClipBounds().top - max);
    }
    canvas.translate(getCompoundPaddingLeft(), getExtendedPaddingTop());
    getLayout().draw(canvas);
    canvas.restore();
}

You might need to add a portion of the TextView measuredWidth to center a multilined text.
