Rotate Text

This command sets the rotation of the selected text to the current twist screen, an entered azimuth, or to align with a line or polyline. The text keeps the same insertion point and justification. The Twist Screen option sets the text rotation to align horizontal with the current twist screen. With the Azimuth option you can enter the angle or pick two points to define the text rotation. The Entity segment aligns the text with a selected line or polyline segment. The Follow option aligns the text with the closest polyline segment.
