6. The Tools in the Toolbox / 6.2 Tools for All Kind of Layers

### 6.2.6 Rotate View

The Rotate View tool can rotate the display of the active document. The document itself is not changed.

You can rotate the document in two ways:

• by clicking and dragging the mouse in the document

• by entering a rotation angle in the Tool Settings

Reset sets the angle back to 0°. A simple click in the document window has the same effect.

Fix rotates the document and has the same effect as using the function Rotate Document (see chapter 7.4.2) with angle entered in the Tool Settings.

Rotate View can be called quickly by pressing the R key. Additionally, you can rotate the view by using Alt+mouse wheel and by Alt+rotate gesture (if your touchpad is supporting this).

Please keep in mind that Rotate View may change the appearance of some adjustment layers a bit, but this will not influence your end result.
