Join Daniel Lieske for an in-depth discussion in this video Rotate View tool, part of Drawing and Painting in Photoshop - The Great Training.
- Another very handy navigation option,…we can find in the Toolbar here…as a variation of the Hand tool…if we click and hold the Hand icon.…We can choose the Rotate View tool.…And with the Rotate View tool…we can grab our digital canvas…and rotate it to any angle…that suits our needs.…Especially if you are trying to do straight lines…in a very specific direction,…it will come in very handy…to be able to rotate the canvas.…
And in combination with zooming in…and zooming out,…this is a perfect way to…navigate your canvas.…And if you want to reset the canvas rotation…to its initial position,…you can do this with a button in the Option bar…which says Reset View.…This will reset your canvas…to its initial orientation.…
