I'm using X3 and am having an issue with the "Angle of Rotation" on my menu. It reads at the default 0 degrees until I select the Text Tool to type and then it goes right to 270 degrees. It's been this way for some time and I have no clue how it changed to this. It's easy to just go to the menu window and type in 0 degrees to type, but I'm getting a little tired of doing this. Any insight will be appreciated!
Thanks!
You accidentally pressed CTRL+. (period) which Changes text to Vertical Direction.
You need to press CTRL+, (comma) to get the settings back to the way it was, i.e. Horizontal.
Don't select your text tool when you do this!
Wow! I never imagined the fix would be so simple! I had a suspicion that the problem had been caused by "fat finger syndrome" but didn't really know! Thank you so much for your help!
You're welcome!

That's a cool shortcut.
