​Writing rotated text in Draw:
1 - In the "Drawing" toolbar, select the text icon (if the ​Drawing toolbar
is not visible, show it first from the Display->Toolbars menu):

2 - Place your text somewhere
3 - Right click in the hashed outline of the text object, then select
"Position and sizing" (not sure about the english translation, but you get
the idea)
4 - In the "Rotation tab, you can set the angle you want (

I believe this answer your question.
