Object rotation error (Rotation to 180 degrees)

Hello

When I'm trying to rotate a text in a text field (Palettes->Object->Layout->Buttons 'Rotate to...', an error message occurs "Object rotation error. 1 object(s) cannot be rotated to 180 degrees. Rotation will cause the object(s) to appear outside bounds of page". However the size of text field are enough for this text. Did anybody have such situation?

Thank you very much in advance!

Regards,

Andrey

You should place the textfield more to the center of the form before you rotate it or change the anchor to "center".

The center of rotation is the handle which is selected in the Anchor drop down box (default is "top left").

The rotation does not change the dimensions of an object so it can happen, that the rotated object would overlap the page borders.

In this case the rotation isn't executed and you get an error message.
