Hi,

In the property settings of a textArea widget in Designer, you can set the rotation angle of your widget : 0° ("normal"), 90°, 180° and 270°. I believe you are looking for the 180degree rotation. If you wish other angles and you do not need to modify your text then I would recommend to not use a textArea but a texturemapper like you said.

Was it enough for your project ? I found a project of mine with a custom widget to rotate the text at any angle if you wish.
