Mirror function isn't working correctly when dealing with text. Text rotation remains that same when mirroring on 90 & 180 axis. This occurs when mirrtext is set to 0. I'm trying to find this for a co-worker so if you need more details please ask.
Thanks,
Corey
 
What are you trying to achieve?
With mirrtext off ("0"), the text will not mirror, in will always remain readable, either from the bottom or the right. If you turn it on, the text will be unreadable as it is truly mirrored (backwords, etc.)
If he is trying to mirror it, say along the x-axis, and is expecting it to be rotated, then that is incorrect, as the text will be upside down.
Hopefully I understand what you are trying to do!
 
To set Mirrtext "On" set it's value to 1.

Do you mean that rotated text, say at 40 degrees does not look like you wnat it when you mirror it about the x axis?

Would rotating text be more what he wants?
