Rotation Example

Using Programming Languages other than VBA

Sub Example_Rotation()
	' This example creates a text object in model space.
	' It then changes the Rotation of the text object.

	Dim textObj As AcadText
	Dim textString As String
	Dim insertionPoint(0 To 2) As Double
	Dim height As Double

	' Define the text object
	textString = "Hello, World."
	insertionPoint(0) = 3: insertionPoint(1) = 3: insertionPoint(2) = 0
	height = 0.5

	' Create the text object in model space
	Set textObj = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddText(textString, insertionPoint, height)
	ZoomAll
	MsgBox "The Rotation is " & textObj.rotation, vbInformation, "Rotation Example"

	' Change the value of the Rotation to 45 degrees (.707 radians)
	textObj.rotation = 0.707
	ZoomAll
	MsgBox "The Rotation is set to " & textObj.rotation, vbInformation, "Rotation Example"
