I'm making a name label which I will finally cut the paper into

I found suggestion from here
https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=1168
saying that the fields do not support draw object. However I don't
know how to rotate a frame into 180 degree. Paragraph style does
have options for 0, 90, 270, but 180 degree is missing.
A little elementary arithmetic helps here: 90 degrees + 90 degrees =
180 degrees. Rotate the frame twice at 90 degrees.
The rotations the questioner is talking about - in paragraph styles -
cannot be applied cumulatively, of course. So your arithmetic, whilst
unimpeachable, is surely of no help? I don't see any way to rotate a
frame (which can accept fields) in a text document; what am I
missing, please? You can create a text box or paste in one created in
Draw and you can rotate this, but then I find (as he suggests) that
you cannot insert the fields.
