Description

I set a label rotation that I was set to 270 degrees rotation of the label.
However, as a result of the 180 ° rotation the imagination I obtained.
Next, it is set to -90 degrees or 90 degrees, it becomes the same result.
Therefore, when we rotated every 10 degrees, it was found that the range of rotation is -90 to 90.

Since the rotation range becomes 180 degrees in 90 -90, can only half a revolution.
In order to rotate 360 degrees the label, since it is necessary in the range 360, 180 should be correct -180 description.

Hi Mahito,

I am sorry, but I do not understand your bug description. Do you mean you want to rotate labels upside-down, i.e. the full 360 degrees?

If so, set Show upside-down labels to 'when rotation defined' or 'always', instead of 'never'. The setting is under Vector Layer Properties -> Labels -> Rendering. The default is 'never' which keeps the rotated label always upright and legible.

Hi Larry.

As you say, I set Show upside-down labels to 'when rotation defined'.
Then, the result intended by my was obtained.

In the Japanese translation, "Show upside-down labels" had been translated to as "displayed vertically label(ラベルを縦書きで表示する)".
Thanks to your advice, I was able to find.
