rotate text about a circle

(OP)
Is there a command to rotate text about a circle, so that the text is always aligned with the center of the circle and equal distance away from it?

RE: rotate text about a circle

Under Express tools, in the Text sub-menu, there is an Arc-Aligned Text option that does what you're describing.  You may have to install the Express tools if you don't already have them, or I'm sure there are other lisp routines out there too that do the same.

RE: rotate text about a circle

Search on this forum for arc text and you should be able
to see other replies.  I think atext and arctext were
ACAD commands and not certain if they are still available
in the 2007.
