            Bug ID: 127353
           Summary: cannot rotate text when textbox is snapped to a line
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: bramdecneudt at gmail.com

Description:
How can you rotate text that's snapped to a line (by double clicking the line
until a text cursor shows up or first slecting the line object and pressing the
insert textbox in the menu bar).

Now it's snapped to the line and rotated the wrong way making it hardly
readable while viewing the document. Current work around is by rotating the
line and let the arrow change side. But this is really impracticable .

how can you change this:

to this with a single click or easy solution?

Locale: en-US (C); UI-Language: en-US

Steps to Reproduce:
1. click on insert line tool
2. insert a line
3. click on line
4. while focused on the line click to add a textbox
5. write something in the text box and exit edit mode
6. you will normally now see that the text is inverted from the user and
difficult to read

Actual Results:
you will normally now see that the text is inverted from the user and difficult
to read

Expected Results:
text should be orientated to the user and not upside down, making it difficult
to read.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
when writing text that's snapped to a line, the text should be orientated to
the user and not upside down.

Optionally you can include an option to rotate text to your liking (cannot find
something like this in libreoffice draw)
