The text box will not be rotated.
The text box will be rotated clockwise ninety degrees.
The text box will be rotated counter-clockwise ninety degrees.
If the text in the text box is smaller than the text box and one of these options is set, the text box will shrink so that the text box is the same size as the text plus the margins. This is an especially useful setting for appearance files that will be used dynamically with PopChart Server Pro.
The width of the text box will be shrunk to match the width of the text.
The height of the text box will be shrunk to match the height of the text.
If Shrink to Width is checked, the text box will be no larger than the number of pixels specified in this box. Text will wrap to a new line if wider than this.
