Jeff:
In MW pro, you double-click on any shape, opening the shape editor. Among 
the dashboard devices which line the top of that editor is an angle 
textbox, defaulting to 45, which can be overwritten by any rotation angle 
you wish. Then, to the right of it, is a semi spiral-like icon to  actually 
twist the shape by that interval.
