Rotate schematic component without rotating the component labels?

MatthewLove

When I rotate a component in the schematic view, the labels are rotated too e.g. rotating by 180 degrees will leave the text upside down.

I know I can rotate each text field back manually but that is tedious.

Is there any way to fix the orientation of component text?

    When you create the label on the symbol, make sure that the label has "Drafting" turned on (this is normally the default). Then those labels will always be shown in R0 or R90 orientation, regardless of how the symbol is rotated or flipped.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
