[Solved] Need Help Rotating a Text Box
Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2018 1:19 am
I can rotate a text box using the Position and Size but not by clicking on the text box and rotating it. From page 170 of the Draw guide version 4.3:
6) To quickly rotate a text box, click again on a selection handle to change the shape and
color of the selection handles. Click and drag on a corner handle to rotate the test box, then
release the mouse button when the text box is at the desired rotation angle. A ghosted
outline of the text box being rotated appears and the current angle of rotation is shown in
the status bar (Figure 203).
I created a text box and entered some text, then I followed the above instruction, but when I click a corner selection handle the cursor turns into a diagonal 2-way arrow instead. And the selection handles are not the green squares but are red diamonds. What am I doing wrong?
