There are several ways to rotate objects. Use the Rotate tool to rotate an object, or a duplicate of an object, directly with the mouse. Use the various Rotate commands to rotate the object by choosing a preset rotation, or by entering custom rotation information in a dialog box.
Certain objects, such as rectangles, rounded rectangles, ovals, bitmaps, and text objects, can be rotated with the Interactive Scaling mode of the Selection tool. Press the Alt key (Windows) or Option key (Mac) while dragging a reshape handle.
