Description Chris Jones 2014-01-20 04:11:59 UTC

If a Text Brush is using Pipe mode and drawing angle is set to control rotation, the letters appear upside down when drawing from left to right.  When drawing right to left the letters are the right way up, but the sequence of letters is reversed.

Steps:

1.  Create a Text Brush and set it to Pipe mode
2.  Under Rotation check "Drawing angle"
3.  Draw

Rotation is set to Drawing Angle

This bug was fixed by adding a new feature/parameter "angleOffset"
to the drawing angle option. Settings this new parameter to
180 degrees will give the expected output in this user's case.

The core issue is that when the drawing angle option is enabled,
an angle of 180 it sent when moving the cursor RIGHT.
KisTextBrush could some how test for this case and manually
subtract 180 to get "no rotation" when travelling right, but this
would be an ugly hack.
