i see

i did try that before but did not notice the handle. you are right, the
handle is now placed on top.

when i tried that, i was so focused on the resulting rectangle when this
property was added to dictionary because the rectangle became vertical,
although calling form.setMatrix() to rotate it displayed it right, and
resizing and moving did not change its orientation but its rectangle got
inverted.
