Options

:SEL_LIST specifies the symbol to modify. This can be used with the Select tool for multiple selection of symbols.
:ABS_ANGLE specifies the angle at which the symbol is to be drawn, measured from the positive x-axis to the symbol baseline.
:GET_ANGLE determines the new symbol angle by defining a line by two points. The angle of the line above the positive x-axis is used as the symbol angle.
:TEXT_READABLE, when switched on with :ON, flips symbol text that would be rotated outside the range of -90° to 90°, so that the text remains readable.

When to use

Use this action to change the angle of existing symbols.
