Rotate a drawing object
You can rotate all of the drawing objects except rounded rectangles, images, and panels.
To rotate a drawing object around an anchor point
- From the Objects menu, select Rotate. The cursor arrow will have the rotate tool icon attached to it.
- Click the object you want to rotate. A small cross hair circle appears in the middle of the object. This acts as an anchor that you can rotate the object around.
- To move the rotation anchor, position the cursor arrow over it. The cursor is replaced by a cross hair that you can drag to a new anchor position. This can be in or outside the object.
- Place the pointer on an edge of the object and drag the mouse in the direction you want to rotate the object.
- Release the mouse button when the object is in the desired position.
