Indeed, text as a line is not an option in most cases.
The problem is most annoying with "value" and "designator" in R's and C's, because there are a lot.

Hello Brad,
I am still learning how to use DXP SP2 for my 1st design.
I think it has many good features, but also misses some very obvious and basic things, and has some serious misbehavior as an integrated solution.
(but there will never be such a thing as a perfect package)
One of the things that surprized me is indeed its poor handling of text within symbols.
There is no way to fix the place and orientation of any text precisely.
Of course, you can always create the text as lines (yes, very cumbersome)
but it will then always stay put relative to the part. This won't work if it
is a part comment or designator, of course. But, if you want a pin 1 mark
or some similar orientation mark, this would work.
