Text Orientation
is there a way to have a smart TEXT to the in a viewport so they would not upside-down. I understand if "Match text to the orientation of viewport" is selected, Text will display horizontally to the orientation of the viewport, but we don't that, we want to avoid text to display upside down. this would be very useful for instance to display the Boundary labels which they need to align with the direction of Lines and Arcs not the Viewport.

Sounds like a great wishlist feature. You can send to Autodesk here

this is exactly the kind of thing keeping ACAD in the past. Amazing to me that in 2023 we have a program that cant auto align text when default orientation is clearly not the direction you want when rotated. I was blown away when I discovered that ACAD forces me to flip/mirror txt in those instances. I've come to learn to work around things like this but there is some low hanging fruit that Autodesk you would think could tackle. To many extra steps in many simple process. Rotate is another. I find myself using reference in rotate almost 98 percent of the time, yet the default rotate requires the extra step of determining a reference if your not snapping to 0/90/180/270

[You can at least reduce the need for that extra step, by having Polar snap turned on [F10 key] and a POLARANG setting that suits typical rotation angles you would use.]

Agreed. However Im never using typical rotations. The item or text could be sitting at an abstract angle and reference seems to always be required. I guess for many maybe default angles ins the go to but reference gives you full control regardless of the angle the object sits at. I wish you could set rotate default to reference. I had a lisp that was doing that, unfortunately it was gumming up ACAD to crawl. ACAD is what it is as they say.

There are probably multiple command definitions around that build in the Reference option. It is such a simple thing and a short command definition that it seems very unlikely to be the cause of gumming up. But even if it was under whatever definition you were using, maybe you can find one that doesn't do that.
