Hmm I thought it was always applying the transformation to the current orientation. For example I kept rotating it 90 degrees and watched it spin full-circle after doing 4 updates.
Can you file a bug in our issue tracker for the -90 problem: http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/list Cheers, -Jeff On Thu, Sep 4, 2008 at 5:27 AM, Joost <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yes, so I read in the reference guide, but it seems to me that the > rotation I request, is calculated based on the *original* orientation, > regardless of any rotation I might have requested since I uploaded the > image. This makes me want to rotate 180 and 0 degrees as well.
