When a Processor is rotated, how can I fix the flow direction of the Type?

Some machines are placed facing backward in my layout. When they are in their original orientation, the flow direction is correct, but after rotating 180 degrees, the flow direction reverses.

Is there a way to solve this?

The movement of the item is relative to the processor (in x+ direction).

You can create a custom animation for the processor that moves the item in the opposite direction.

But it's easier to only change the orientation of the shape instead of actually rotating the object, to keep the visuals consistent.
