This means if youre currently using Windows 10, There is a very good chance you can type Paint 3D into your search bar and open up the program.

By Default, Paint 3D comes pre-installed on your Windows 10 computer. Undo is your friend as always but it doesn’t make life easy. Paint 3D allows you to add elements to your photos to direct the audience to certain parts of your image. Once you click outside the selection you set the text. Once rotated, you can still manipulate the text while it is still selected. You cannot manually increment the rotation, you have the option for Right 90, Left 90, Rotate 180, Flip vertical and Flip horizontal.

Select the Select tool in the Ribbon and draw a box around the text.You cannot select the text in isolation and rotate it. Rotation only works for the image as a whole so when placing text you will want to rotate you need to place it over an area you can rotate without it spoiling the image. With MS Paint, you don’t use layers so you have to work a little harder.

As you would normally add text as a layer you can then customize it to your heart’s content. Rotating text is something we take for granted as super simple in other editing programs.
