Rotating boxes, but not the box.text (Read 4616 times)

	Hi, Is it possible to be able to rotate a box, but not the box.text string with it? I like this rotating feature, but if the text is also rotated it reduces the readability for the user.

	Ok, you're right but let me clarify.. I have a picture in the box, which I would like to be able to rotate. If RotateContents is set to false, the box rotates, but not the picture. What I was looking for was a way to be able to rotate the box (with contents, so the picture), but not the text.

	You might do that using groups, as described here: http://mindfusion.org/cgi/Forum/YaBB.pl?board=fcx_disc;action=display;num=116130... Stoyan

	Aha I see. This would work, but a new box property would be more elegant. At least it would save the overhead of having two instances per box instead of one.

	It seems that will be a popular feature, so we will add a RotateText property, Stoyan

	Hi, This version adds a RotateText property: https://mindfusion.org/_temp/rottext.zip RotateText is not yet serialized when you save a diagram file, because we update the file format only for official new versions. The dll is an evaluation build - send me an email if you wish to receive the licensed build. Stoyan
