Re: text parallel diagonal lines

[Kevin Wilson <wkevils gmail com>]

Hello,
Thanks!
- I downloaded 0.97-pre2 and build it.
- when I tried to use enter text as before, when clicking right mouse
and properties I did not see "rotation" option,
  - When I try "tools->outline", it draws a little "?", but it does
not let me enter text. There **is** a "rotation" when
opening properties dialog of an outline.

Am I missing something ?
Any chances that the svn version is better in this respect ?
Any advice will be appreciated.


Rgs,
Kevin
