unrotatable reference designator

Hi,

 Is there a way to set RefDes in component footprint to be always at 0deg (or even better: 0 or 90deg) no matter what rotation component has?

Regards

Kriss

    There are methods through SKILL to change *after* the fact or you can do a move->rotate>absolute on text and all of the text selected will rotate to the set value.

    The SKILL program out in the user library can set size and rotation of text based on component rotation.
