It seems that after a rotated text can not persistent.
I rotated a text by set the angle to 90 and save this diagram and later I open it, the text location was not correct like the attachment, am I missing something?

That sounds strange, i haven't observed anything like this and can't imagine
why this happens. The angle attribute is part of the Pictograms model as
anything else and should get persisted as the rest. There must be something
else in your shape creation; from the screenshot it seems to me as if there
is rather a positioning issue than the angle not being correct...

The angle is correct yes but the location of the text is not correct, the strange thing is I can change the location of the text when rotating it, and the I saved it, close it, reopen this diagram, the text flies out.

The Shape GraphicAlgrithem looks like:
<Shape>
<RectAlgri x=y=width=height=... >
<Text angle=[90|0] x=y=width=height=.... />
</RectAlgri>
</Shape>
Was this structure correct?

That sounds really strange. The positioning of rotated texts is not really
as intuitive as it should be (there' an open Bugzilla to improve that), but
once it's at the right position, saving and reopening should not have these
effects.

Do you have an example to reproduce that you can share?

Many thanks to your help, below are the shape code from my diagram and steps to reproduce it:

<!--Step1: Before rotate text, the location of text is correct /-->
<children visible="true" active="true">
<graphicsAlgorithm xsi:type="al:Rectangle" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="59" height="22" x="262" y="42" style="/0/@styles.4">
<graphicsAlgorithmChildren xsi:type="al:Text" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="59" height="22" style="/0/@styles.4" horizontalAlignment="ALIGNMENT_CENTER" value="SK_NW"/>
</graphicsAlgorithm>
<link businessObjects="/6"/>
<anchors xsi:type="pi:ChopboxAnchor"/>
</children>

<!--Step2: After rotate text, the location of text is not correct /-->
<children visible="true" active="true">
<graphicsAlgorithm xsi:type="al:Rectangle" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="22" height="59" x="262" y="42" style="/0/@styles.4">
<graphicsAlgorithmChildren xsi:type="al:Text" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="22" height="59" style="/0/@styles.4" horizontalAlignment="ALIGNMENT_CENTER" angle="90" value="SK_NW"/>
</graphicsAlgorithm>
<link businessObjects="/6"/>
<anchors xsi:type="pi:ChopboxAnchor"/>
</children>

<!--Step3: Since the location of text is not correct, we change the location of the text, switch the width and height of it(the adjusted location I currently can not supply) /-->
<children visible="true" active="true">
<graphicsAlgorithm xsi:type="al:Rectangle" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="22" height="59" x="262" y="42" style="/0/@styles.4">
<graphicsAlgorithmChildren xsi:type="al:Text" lineWidth="1" transparency="0.0" width="59" height="22" style="/0/@styles.4" horizontalAlignment="ALIGNMENT_CENTER" angle="90" value="SK_NW"/>
</graphicsAlgorithm>
<link businessObjects="/6"/>
<anchors xsi:type="pi:ChopboxAnchor"/>
</children>

<!--Step4: Save and re-open it /-->
