Is the canvas rotate idea currently being implemented? I found the thread from April which had a lot of great ideas but I didn't know if anyone was working on it of if it's on the list of things to do. I know what was discussed sounded like really clever stuff and I can only guess how difficult the feature may have been to implement. So I was wondering if a simple alternative could be adopted instead - the alternative being that instead of rotating the Inkscape viewport we rotate a SVG layer. I could just rotate a group, but I think rotating a layer instead is bit easier since you won't have to jump in and out of the group everytime you need to adjust the rotation. But there isn't a control for rotating layers currently. The control could be displayed on the layer palette and behave much the same as the Opacity slider. The only catch is, for it to be most useful, it would be best if the centre of rotation could be quickly and easily set where you wanted. Bad idea? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Canvas-Rotate---Alternative--tf4645455.html#a13269725 Sent from the Inkscape - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
