Issues with getting this Dynamic Block to Orientate based on layout

[MatTheDrafter]

I created this dynamic block so I can position the Single letter text on the corner that would view better when placed on a drawing. Sadly I am having difficulty getting the block to Orientate based on layout. 

Does anyone know why?

Hello @MatTheDrafter, 

Can you please let is know exactly where you would like to place the E on the block? It's best to place the attributes within the block. 

You can add parameters & actions to your attributes to help adjust your text orientations depending on the drawing orientation. Use the rotation parameter & action.

This is a known limitation (for me), combinations of flip parameter and 'Orientate based on layout' are not friends..

"where you would like to place the E on the block? "

The question is why it isn't possible to use the "Orientate based on layout" property in blocks with flip parameters.

I want to be still able to choose which corner the Text would appear base on location on the drawing and have it orientate, base on the layout is being plotted to.

Hello @MatTheDrafter, 

Please review the drawing I attached in my last post, adding the parameter & action to your block should provide you what you are looking for.
