epk Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I often need to rotate scans so that the scanned text is precisely aligned with the sides of the image. In photoshop, I select the ruler tool, indicate a line on the top of some row of characters (or some other printed feature), then rotate according to the angle formed. Paint.Net doesn't have a ruler tool [FEATURE REQUEST!] ; what can I do in stead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 The bottom status bar have the angle value and holding Shift key sets each move at 15º. Does that help?

oma Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 recall post viewtopic.php?f=12&t=22651&p=141788#p141788 I sometimes use this tool on transparent layer for other angles than the set degrees in our program. make the canvas just a touch bigger and import tool into transparent layer of your work right clik and swivel entire image until you have degree of rotation. or measure degree and use layer rotate which ever you find easier. ciao not sure if it will work your app. but I often use this in drawing angles from scratch Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
