Please add a basic feature with ability to rotate a text box. In many report I would like to use screen real estate effectively by having text vertically on the left allowing full height for visuals. All Office apps have this basic feature.

RE: Rotate text box

Have Rotation option under Format shape, and text is rotated on y-axis labels.

RE: Rotate text box

How is this not already a feature? Seems ridiculous.

RE: Rotate text box

We have resorted to using R visuals to get around this (and the inability to rotate card visuals as well.) This is ridiculous.

RE: Rotate text box

I can't understand why something so basic is not included.

RE: Rotate text box

Couldn't agree more. The Y axis labels only get so large and don't include any formatting other than color.

BASIC! This would enhance so many designs! Please just add this basic function in!
