User f3red changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution| |INVALID -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Nov 22 20:22:06 +0000 2008 ------- OK - once you get around to pulling down the View-->Toolbars-->Customize menu item, then select the Drawing toolbar, then select the Vertical Text tool, you can see that the Description states the following unexpected advice: "Draws a text box with vertical text direction where you click or drag in the current document. Click anywhere in the document, and then type or paste your text. You can also move the cursor to where you want to add the text, drag a text box, and then type or paste your text. ONLY AVAILABLE WHEN ASIAN LANGUAGE SUPPORT IS ENABLED." Emphasis added. Problem resolved for me - but other users BEWARE! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
