Hi,

I know that xfig can't rotate text, but I have read somewhere that the
latest version (we have 2.1.6) should display at least a rotated box
so that you can see where the text will end up on paper.

If I try this, I get the same old result: no rotated text, no box.
Did I misread whatever I read or do you have to do something to enable
this new feature?


Richard.
