How do I rotate information in a chart?
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
For anyone running across this thread in the future and wondering what the answer was, I think it is in the following thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253030852
Note that the question in that thread was "How can I rotate information in a cell" not "How do I rotate information in a chart".
Do you mean a table or a chart?
You can't rotate text in a table cell. But you can rotate text in a text box.
In a chart you can rotate axis labels.
More specifics on what you are trying to do would help.

This was not helpful.
I am not a professional. Just looking to make a spreadsheet type list of chores for myself. I would like to have rows 2 and down to be the normal horizontal boxes. I would like row one to be written vertically so I can get more columns on the sheets. I did not make myself very clear.
I did find the rotate button in the arrange section. It does nothing. How do I activate it if that is my answer

Numbers does not allow you to rotate text in a table cell. Sorry.
There are workarounds involving text boxes. If you're just making a list of chores, though, then that may be more trouble than it's worth.
Have you had a look at the templates at File > New in the menu? There are some that are suitable for lists of tasks.

Thank you for your suggestion. I was trying to have both vertical and horizontal line items on the same page.
I got an answer from Barry that completely solved my inquiry. He was very patient and broke it down so I am now able to make just the chart I wanted.

You could always print this in landscape view, if that fix this issue (by 90 degrees).
