Subject: rotating shapes
From: mwforum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Harvey Bornfield)

Jeff:
In MW pro, you double-click on any shape, opening the shape editor. Among the dashboard devices which line the top of that editor is an angle textbox, defaulting to 45, which can be overwritten by any rotation angle you wish. Then, to the right of it, is a semi spiral-like icon to actually twist the shape by that interval.

any angle instead of being limited to 90 degree rotations."

What am I missing here? How do you do that?

Thanks,
