For more information, refer to the description of the OBJECT SET TEXT ORIENTATION command.
Only non-enterable and non-focusable text objects can be rotated.
When you choose an option (other than 0°) from the "Orientation" menu for a field or variable type object, the Enterable and Focusable properties are automatically unchecked for the object (if necessary):
This object is then excluded from the entry order and its background becomes transparent by default.
Conversely, if you check the Enterable and/or Focusable property for a rotated object, its orientation property is automatically reset to 0°.
Once a text is rotated, you can still change its size or position using selection handles or using language commands such as OBJECT SET COORDINATES, as well as all its properties.
Note that the text area’s height and width properties do not depend on its orientation:
You can also modify the contents of an area in the Form editor. Before changing to edit mode, the text switches to the default orientation:
