RT#7780: Issues with Resizing Rotated Text Objects SOLVED

=== UPDATE ===================================================================
The issue reported below has been resolved in Ver 11.0.0.
I appreciate all the hard work and efforts of the support and development team.
==============================================================================

Hello all,

I have noticed two unintended behaviors when attempting to resize rotated text objects using the sizing handles in Edit Objects mode.

• Issue 1: Mouse cursor shape does not match the handle's function.
• Issue 2: Dragging a handle causes the object to transform as if a different handle were being manipulated.

I have prepared a sample file with two pages:

• Page 1: A base content text object rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
• Page 2: A base content text object rotated 45 degrees counter-clockwise.

• sample.pdf

Please refer to the following two verification videos:

• Regarding Issue 1: When hovering over the eight sizing handles, the cursor should ideally appear as shown in the green boxes in the attached diagram. However, it actually appears as shown in the red boxes.

• Regarding Issue 2: When dragging any handle, the object transforms as if the handle located 90 degrees clockwise from the selected point were being operated.

Verification Video 2 (45-degree rotation)

• Animation2.gif
  
  When the text object is rotated 45 degrees, the behavior when manipulating the handles becomes even more erratic and counter-intuitive, making it very difficult to describe in words.

Note:
These issues occur in Edit Objects mode. When using Edit Text mode, the dragging behavior (Issue 2) works correctly regardless of the rotation angle.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Best regards,
rakunavi
