I can do it using image. Is there any other way to do it?

Thanks in advance!

Can you use a straight table instead of text box object?

I am not aware of a way to do that in a text object other than making an image of what you want and having the text object point to the image - obviously if the value to display changes, that is not really an option.

There are other objects that allow verticle colun labels such as a straight table - you can color the background and adjust the font to get a similar look to your example

You can add color and formatting to it as well.

Make sure all of these are unchecked on sort tab:

It is not allowing me to extend the height though. Is there a way to do it?

I guess just add blank space before you type the text (or expression) and add extra space afterwards if you need the text to be in the middle

Go to View -> Select Design Grid.

Right Click the object -> Select 'Custom Cell Formatting'
