[vtkusers] Y label strange in vtkAxesActor

[Julien Finet]

What is wrong:
The right part of the Y letter is drawn on the left side (-> letter wrap).

:-)

Explanation attempt:
Because the text is in Italic, vtkTextActor fails to pick the correct font
size for a given area to draw in.
It wrongly picks a width too narrow, so when it renders the letter as a
texture within a (too narrow) area, the texture wraps.
You might want to investigate within vtkTextActor (especially
vtkTextActor::ComputeScaledFont) and aggregated classes.

For information, vtkAxesActor uses vtkCaptionActor2D that internally uses a
vtkTextActor with a CaptionTextProperty text property that is
bold,italic,arial,with shadows.

Hth,
Julien.
