Digits in labels are not rotated correctly
Problem
When you rotate a think-cell label by 90 or 270 degrees, non-numeric characters rotate as expected, but digits are not rotated or rotated by 180 degrees respectively.
Solution
Delete affected labels and insert them anew.
Explanation
In Microsoft Office, the setting kumimoji can be applied if, for example,
an East Asian language is selected as the default editing language. When text carries this setting,
digits and non-numeric characters rotate differently.
Finding the kumimoji setting in the PowerPoint 2010, 2013 and 2016 ribbon:
-
Select an East Asian Language:
File → Options → Language → Choose Editing Languages and click OK. - Select a PowerPoint textbox.
- Open Home → Paragraph → Text Direction.
-
Kumimojican be applied by selecting the Vertical option.
Unfortunately, PowerPoint's programming interface does not provide a way for add-ins, such as think-cell, to recognize text carrying the
kumimoji property.
