[Drawkit] DKTextShape rotation

[Allan]

Hi Graham,

I'm still working on implementing the TEXT entity import from the DXF  
format into DK. It has been a tougher nut to crack than I expected.  
Here's my current issue that I wonder if you could comment on.

In AutoCAD (and the resulting DXF) when TEXT is rotated it is not  
necessarily rotated around the center point. AutoCAD uses the concept  
of an "insertion point" which is the origin or base point of the TEXT  
object. If you rotate text, it gets rotated with respect to this  
insertion point.

I think that in DK all DrawableObject rotations happen around the  
object center/middle point. Is that correct? If so, for me to place a  
rotated text object correctly would require me to do some math where I  
would use the AutoCAD insertion point and the rotation angle with some  
sines and cosines to figure out the correct DK origin and then apply  
the rotation.

Is that right? All DK objects are rotated around the center/middle? Or  
is there a clever DK method to modify the rotation point for an object  
that I could use to more directly get the TEXT object located correctly?

Thanks for any help you can send.
