Flip text orientation (without exploding it)?

[diff-arch]

Hi,

Is there a way to flip a text object - in my case a vertical one -, by the relevant axis (i.e. world y-axis) in order to change its orientation, while keeping it editable?

It currently only works when I explode the text first. Then it can get mirrored, scaled by -1, or rotated 180°.

The expected result would look like this.

In the “Text” tab under “Annotation Styles”, the SLF-RHN Architect font doesn’t seem to feature an option to change the text orientation.

Thanks.

What you have drawn is a rotation of 180° rather than a flip…

I’m guessing you have Horizontal to view checked.

No, I have that unchecked for the currently used style.

You need to turn this off in the annotation style used by the object:

Yes, that’s it. Thanks!
