Display full version of the post: legible attribute on block

I am trying to create a 3-way switch block. The out-of-the-box 3-way switch device works the way I need my switch to work.

In block editor I have a switch "symbol" created, and added my annotative attribute one-line text. I added an align parameter. How can I get the text to "rotate with the switch" yet "stay legible"? It doesn't have to stay horizontal like the device driven block.

Please help,

Hiya, Gal!Did you include a Rotation parameter and action in your block?  If you do all you have to do is include the attribute with the switch objects in the action and it will rotate right along with everything else.  The align parameter might actually be more of a bother than a help.  That's more useful for placing the block itself.Dave.
