Rotating Images with the Deform Tool

Use the Deform tool to rotate images.

To rotate with the Deform tool:

  1. Select a layer on the Layer palette.

  2. On the Tools toolbar, choose the Deform tool .

  3. To change the center of rotation, hold down the Ctrl key and then drag the rotation pivot point (the circle at the image’s center) to the desired position.

  4. Rotate the layer by dragging the rotation handle (the square connected by a line to the rotation pivot point) to a new position.

Note: Paint Shop Pro hides the image data that is rotated off the canvas. You can view the data by increasing the size of the image canvas. See Changing Canvas Size.
