Is it possible to reset a transform cage? In the screenshot below you can see an element rotated by 60°. It's a curve object. Normally this element is used with 0° rotation so that the graphic itself is rotated. Now I need the graphic vertical, so I rotated the whole thing by 60°. For better handling it would be useful if the cage could be "reset" to 0° rotation but keeping the graphic vertical.
This must be possible somehow, because the graphic has been alined horizontally when I created it (built it from text). I just don't know how I managed to rotate it inside the cage...
Could anybody give me a hint?

Hi @maxen Try Select menu > Cycle Selection box. This function allows you to temporarily switch the selection box that is oriented to match the object rotation to selection box oriented to match the page. This should reset the what you call `Transform cage`. hope this helps you. Cheers :)

Also in 2.4 there was added a function called `Set Selection Box` that allows to make that change permanently↓

Key shortcut would be normally having Move tool selected and hitting the . (dot) or "group" this element.
