Create an asymetric object from Draw toolbar 2. Clik to enter text 3. Enter text 4. Click outside the object 5. Select object 6. Flip object vertically or rotate object by 90 deg => text is not in normal reading position and cannot be flipped or rotatet into normal reading position whike keeping the object in desired position (flipped vertically or rotated by 90 deg) Current behavior: Text flips/rotates with object and cannot be turned back into normal reading position Expected behavior: When an object is flipped or rotated, a functionality is needed to keep text direction in the normal way.

Thanks for reporting! I do agree this will be very helpful. This is not a bug but an enhancement request. Therefore I mark it a such. Kind regards, Joren
*** Bug 61068 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
ODF itself has no "upright" property for shapes. And emulating the "upright" property of OOXML is not yet implemented.
Is there any update on this?
Sorry, a UI is still missing. You need a macro for the rotation or need to edit the file markup.
