Is there any chance to scale a text object along the X axis?

EDIT: I would like to create a rotation effect, on a text object along the Y axis, so it must be scaled along the X axis

Map the text onto a sprite, then scale and squeeze that however you wish.

Display the text, grab the relevant part of the screen into a memblock, make that into an image and then make that image into a sprite.

Thanks for the tip. I would like to make this procedure without being visible to the user.

This whole draw something onto something process could really use some simplification. Customizing the rendering just feels like a hack. I like simple things..
