# rotatesCoordinateSystemForLayoutOrientation

Determines if the framework rotates the coordinate system to match the layout orientation.

## Declaration

```swift
var rotatesCoordinateSystemForLayoutOrientation: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion If set to true, the framework rotates the coordinate system for arguments passed to the navigation methods such as textSelections(interactingAt:inContainerAt:anchors:modifiers:selecting:bounds:): based on the text container layout orientation. Defaults to false.
