In GE, action to change the orientation of buses

[Etienne13]

Summary

Setting the layout of the graphical representation of a hardware platform is not very easy, and I think buses components are mostly responsible for this. I was wondering if it would be feasible to have an action to change the orientation of buses components to rotate them by 90°. I think it would help the organization of a HW platform description.

Then, it would be handy to be able to connect buses using any part of their edges. Same for the bindings.

@Etienne13 can you clarify the problem. Are you also intending the label of the bus to be vertical. Can you provide a mockup example of how you think it should look? I don't understand the meaning of your last paragraph.

@philip-alldredge I am not intending the label to be vertical. You will find a mockup example with this link. My last paragraph is illustrated in the mockup example using the red lines: it would be handy to be able to use any edge of a bus component as a connection (or binding) endpoint.

Thanks for the example.

Fixed by dbefc8b. The editor now adjusts the graphic for buses depending on width and height.
