It really depends how draw an object (especially rectangle), where the top of a shape is. Rotating an object which is drawn horizontally feels 'natural'. However if the shape is drawn vertically everything becomes upside down (metaphorically). A shape having a 90 degree rotation resulting in horizontal orientation (as long the same doesn't contain text) is rather counterintuitive without UI feedback. The problem above doesn't occur when drawing a line. The drawn object has a rotation set automatically. So if you draw line horizontal 0 degrees. Draw a line vertically 270 degrees. So it might be that that's the bug. In which case the rotation handle being a nice additional feature (comment 4), but not relevant for the problem experienced here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
