\pard\li360\f0 This file contains the Form class that can get the angle that the instances will be rotated by or to determined by checking \ldblquote Relative\rdblquote or \ldblquote Absolute\rdblquote . And if only one instance is selected, the angle input text box will show its current angle, otherwise be blank.\f1\par
