Hi, I am not so convincted to this anchoration method. Please can you explain what you want exactly? I had problems with text anchored by all sides when the text is wordwrap. This is because you can't know a-priori when and where the text is broken.
Try to remove the margins one step at a time to see how the behavior changes. Wordwrap is very useful but has some problems. I have also experienced that it can no be anchored to the bottom because its bottom does not exist.

Thank you. You are right. I should remove the bottom anchor. I will check the anchors again but my question is why does it work perfectly with N8 and not with N950?

This software if open? can you post a working piece somewhere so I can test? Do you have the emulator of the device ?

It might be could to use "anchors.centerIn: parent" rather than anchoring to the sides. Then make sure your rotationOrigin is set to center.

As an aside, is your sticky note image (the parent) already rotated? Or are you rotating it as well?

THANK YOU. Duh ! anchoring centreIn worked ! In hide sight I can see why the rotated text didn't work now. I have removed the side anchors and rotation of text and though the word wrap didn't work, I have structured the text content to fit in the yellow stick pad._ but I still have no idea why earlier anchoring worked in N8 and not in N950_

No the parent image rotates only when it is pressed on. It zooms up 2x and rotates.
The sticky note in screen shot [non-zoom] shows that it is at an angle because the image is as such-the yellow pad is not straight.
Thanks all of you

You can always set an explicit width: and height: for your Text area to enable the text to wrap properly, also.

Thank you for the suggestion. However I still find that in this app's case, I need to adjust the top margin by some amount - [parent's image - 40 ].
