Request: Rotate Layer (90, 180, 270)

[SAND33P]

Simple enough to say, instead of using the 'Rotate / Zoom' tool, having an option much like in the 'Image' button, were you can rotate by 90 degrees quickly.

It's merely for sake of convenience

Hold down shift while rotating with the Move Selected Pixels tool, or while rotating the globe thingy w/ Rotate Zoom.

You really have thought of everything!

You really have thought of everything!

Apart from what to call the globe thingy

Well, it's called the "Roll Control" in the code ...

For those who didn't know (like me, until I studied the Help in response to this thread) you can rotate using the Move Selected Pixels tool by right-clicking in the selection. This also applies to the Move Selection tool.

I have often wished for exactly this capability but never thought to try the right-click approach. Suggestion: rename "Move Selected Pixels" to "Move/Rotate Selected Pixels" (and similar for Move Selection), as a signal that this is possible, to signal that the capability is there. I simply assumed it was not possible.

I prefer the "globe thingy" Roll Control is too much of a NASA-like name thingy.
