Oops, I made a small error in my inquiry on this topic. In case anyone was
interested in this detail, the current version of Prism (v1) does NOT allow
text to be at angles other than horizontal and vertical. Fig P is the
program which allows text rotation under mouse control: "(don't have to
enter angle for text annotation as degrees)". A better example of what
Prism does well is automatic wrapping of text annotations into multiple
lines; if you change the width of a text item later, the text is re-wrapped
to fit the resulting box.
