Spin the text inside an <li> element generated by JavaScript

I am currently working on a unique script designed to create a custom number of slices for a circle. The items in the circle are being displayed as shown in this generated circle image. This is the Javascript code I have been using:

for () {
        menu.styleSheet += `li:nth-child(${i + 1}) {\n` +
                                `\ttransform: rotate(${currentDegrees}deg) skewY(${degreeOffset - 90}deg);\n` +
                             `}\n\n`;

        menu.styleSheet += `li:nth-child(${i + 1}) .text {\n` +
                               `\ttransform: skewY(${90 - degreeOffset}deg) rotate(${degreeOffset / 2}deg);\n` +
                           `}\n\n`;

        currentDegrees += degreeOffset;
    }

My current challenge involves ensuring that the numbers (as seen in the provided image) always face upwards, without affecting other elements or shifting the text position. How can I achieve this transformation while keeping the positioning intact and maintaining the overall generated style?

Answer №1

I found a simple solution by inserting a p element within the li tag, allowing me to successfully rotate the text without causing any design issues.
