You can rotate objects on a page by using the rotation handle or the rotating gesture (if your interactive product supports multitouch gestures).
Notes
You’re unable to rotate an object if it’s locked in place (see Locking objects).
You’re unable to rotate tables.
You don’t need to rotate vertical and angled text objects before you edit them. When you double-click a text object, it automatically rotates to a horizontal position. When you finish editing the text and you press outside of the text object, the text reverts to its original angle.
Using the rotation handle
To rotate an object
Select the object.
Press the object’s rotation handle (the green circle), and then drag it in the direction you want to rotate the object.
To rotate multiple objects
Select the objects.
A selection rectangle appears around each object.
Press the rotation handle (the green circle) on any one of the selected objects, and then drag it in the direction you want to rotate the object. When you rotate one object, all other selected objects rotate automatically.
Using the rotating gesture
To rotate an object around its center

Using one finger on each hand, press the screen at opposite ends of the object.
