Help with GT Designer2 and text alignment

I'm using GT Designer2 to create OIT layout, and I am having trouble.

I have a Vertical Object displaying Horizontal text. I tried to create the object Horizontally, then Rotate it with the text, however, GT Designer 2 doesn't allow rotation of objects.

Is there any way to make the text align inside the object?

make separate objects (what ever you have that is vertical and text object with horizontal text), lay them on top of each other or any way you like and then group them
