Gave a set of schematics to a client and they decided they wanted all the wire numbers rotating 90 degrees... In the interest of efficiency, any way I can rotate all the pieces of text at the same time whilst maintaining their individual position rather than selecting a base rotation point (as I have about 400 wire numbers to make my way through ).

I followed the tutorial linked below to successfully create cartoon text.
My Macbook was then updated to Lion and I checked I had the latest version of GIMP and have been trying all morning to create some more text in the same manner.
However no matter what I do when I select the layer that contains the single letter and I try to rotate it nothing happens?
If I do Alpha to Selection the selection rotates but then I cant do anything with it, stoke fill etc?
To clarify this is what I do:
Create a word
select a letter in the word
ctrl-x
ctrl-v
select new layer
name the new layer to match the letter just cut and pasted
ensure that layer is selected
choose rotate tool
....no rotation takes place?

How come my 16 bits RAW file is only 10 bits when converted to DNG? To me that sound like a loss in quality and possible post processing issues. Do I need to worry?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a photoshop file with around 20 different text layers. The sizing and the location of the layers is essential. When my editor imports the file the text layers lose their properties (sizing and placement). Is there something I should be doing to help solve this problem? Can you use text layers between photoshop and final cut?

I would like the cross and the text N to rotate independantly of the arrow while the N stays with the thick line. That's the easy part. How can I make the N move along the rotation path and keep the text aligned horizontally? I read something about linked action and move, but I can't make it work.Â
I know I can rotate text with the rotate command or from the properties palette, but if I'm editing text and the text formatting toolbar is displayed, why don't I have the ability to modify the rotation right there? How do I get it there? Can I customize this toolbar?

I'll start by saying that I'm using Civil 3D 2012...I've made a custom line type and am having issues with it. Basically, I'm trying to get the text (Green line with 4's) to flip around from it's current orientation, see attachment. I have already tried the REVERSE and MIRROR commands, with no success.
View 6 Replies View Relatedwhat i have is a section cut that my Mechanical guys use. What i am trying to do is create a dynamic block using the rotate parameter.
Currently i have two rotate parameters. One to rotate the section cut lines around one bit of text. The second parameter is to rotate another bit of text, but this is also selected in the first parameter.
It is almost working... with the exception that when i use the main rotate grip everything rotates around the text i want it to, but the second bit of text rotates 180° the opposite direction.
I have attached a copy of the file.
SO difficult to see the text change and determine if it is at the right angle when the original text is still there.
How can I only display the new "Rotating Text" without the "Original Position" text.
I am working on creating a dynamic block library and am having several problems with text within my blocks. For example... I am working on a North Arrow block and would like the text to rotate with my block, but I want the text to remain right-side up. When I rotate the arrow past 180 degrees the text is upsidedown.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been unable to rotate the header text in a parts list. I created a new text style that is rotated 90 deg, a new part list style that specifies to use that text style in the header. Everything else about the text in the header displays correctly (i.e. font, size, colour, etc) but not the rotation when I insert the parts list in a drawing using the correct standard. When I apply this same standard to a regular text line on the drawing it will rotate the 90 degs but not in the part list.

1. when I edit or create text in a particualr drawing, I can't keep the editor from rotating 90 degrees.
I've tried creating a new style and it does the same thing both in model space and in Paper Space.
2. in a new drawing, the editor jumps out of drawing area on right side of drawing space by default.
I have been capturing data for measured building surveys with a Leica total station (TS06). When I upload the data into autocad i can see the node points (+) and text in the top view. When switch to look at the points from the front view (to produce an elevation), the text and points appear as a flat line, although the insertion point of the node/text is still correct. I need to find a way of rotating the text and points so they are visible in this view. I will then flatten the points and cut them to the top view to produce a 2d elevation.
we had a toolbar with a button to perform this function. However, now i don't have the toolbar,

I have numerous text objects I want to rotate 180 while retaining each text objects insertion point. There's got to be an easy way to do this.
Long explanation: I created an annotation template to label pipe diameters on an imported shapefile. Everythings good, labels are parallel with lines, except for the fact that some labels are upside down. Is there an expression that would eliminate this? In my annotation template, my rotation expression equals the "angle" field of the object. My "quick and dirty" fix was to burst the annoation labels, and manually rotate necessary text, which wasn't a huge headache since I'm dealing with a relatively small number of labels, but in the future I might have hundreds of upside down labels.
Is there a way to do this? Is there a script out there that can create individual Symbols from individual layers?

EDIT: I pasted this in the wrong forum so i moved it over here.
Is there any way I can type in text, and put it in the same place in each layer without having to go to each individual layer and putting it in?

My big problem is this: Many of the photos/album pages were scanned in a way that makes it neccesery for me to rotate/flip them into proper position. When I rotate them, the handwriting comes out backward/mirrored.

how do you rotate text without distortion - cs3 photoshop?
am using layers, one layer is a text layer, i want to rotate that, say 8º but without distortion in the letters.
Couldn't wait for the CD so started into Ver 7 Designer Pro. (Win 7 Pro 64 bit) I opened a PDF I had created in another graphics package (Canvas) and every letter of a word was like a single text entry.
I opened same file in my PDF writer and selected some text, copied to word and it copied as words not text entities.
