Rotate Surface Spot Labels

It should be possible to rotate surface spot labels about the marker point either with a rotate grip or with AutoCAD rotate command. So far all see is the ability to set fixed rotation angles in the style. Having a style for multiple fixed rotation angles seems time consuming and cumbersome.

I've read that points can be rotated with AutoCAD command or grip (C3D 2009) so should be available for all labels

I second this! It's 2012 already and I've noticed that this has been requested for several years now. Please make it happen!

The following video was done in C3D2012 with a Surface Elevation Label....

Apart from rotating by hand, is it possible to select a label and set the rotation in the properties box?  That would let you select multiple labels and set the rotation for all of them all at once.

No I've tried selecting the label and there isn't any rotate option in the properties.

 

 

I use C3D2011. I'm guessing this new rotate option is only for 2012. Pooey.

Cool Jeff that's sweet.  Thanks for sharing.  Maybe I'll get to try it out in a year or two.
