Feature : Tool/Effect : Rotate Frame

[AlexHolly]

Is it possible to rotate a frame or do i miss something?(90° steps)

[juliandescottes]

Not there yet !

Probably falls into the same category as the flip effect. They're not really tools, but rather transformations that should be applied to the whole frame/selection. Don't know yet where to add them in the UI.

Dear Sir, may I offer a suggestion about where to put such itens in the UI? I usually work with User Experience and if I may be of any help, let me know. Best regards.

P.S. I love your app

Hi Sir :)

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, hadn't thought about this option, and I like it ! I'll try it as soon as I get around working on this topic. (maybe @austech would like to give it a shot for issue #204 as well ?)

I would still like an option to apply these effects to all frames/layers. For this we were thinking of using CTRL and SHIFT modifiers (cf issue #204 : https://github.com/juliandescottes/piskel/issues/204#issuecomment-53193445)

And also maybe using ALT to switch between horizontal and vertical flips (and between clockwise / counter-clockwise rotations). This would save one icon on the UI here. What do you think ? Too much keyboard :) ?

The thing with shortcuts is, if you'r going to make a mobile version you have no way to use them.
So in the end there is more work to do.

There are already so many shortcuts i think a few more won't change anything.
+1 two in one :)
The location of the icons looks good to me.

Hi there! The use of keyboard is already well stablished in the other tools, so it would not be a surprise or annoyance for the users. So I think it would be a good idea indeed to reduce the number of icons and make better use of the keyboard.

I'm glad to be of help. Please let me know if you need anything.
