Albo Posted November 28, 2021 Posted November 28, 2021 Indeed. Also the Mac version. Problem is I am using a Wacom Intuos. Good to know. Thanks. Quote Mac Studio M1

I realize that Wacom has many tablets out there with the Intuos name and so not all features are available on all models but are there any buttons or sliders or dials (I have a ring), could they be changed to allow rotation? walt.farrell 1 Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
Albo Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 I had disabled the touch option on the tablet. I will turn it on and see how it works with my workflow. Thank you. Quote Mac Studio M1
Barnabas Thomas Posted December 3, 2021 Posted December 3, 2021 I would love for this feature to be added - I'm using a laptop riser and a standard Intuos, so the trackpad rotation thing isn't feasible. Quote
marsmotion Posted December 6, 2021 Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) i would suggest the devs actually forget about photoshop and look at krita canvas rotation instead. shift plus middle mouse click which is accessible by pen click assignment allows nice canvas rotation with stylus plus they also have other modes for pure keyboard use and mouse use as well. You can rotate the canvas without transforming. It can be done with the Ctrl + [ shortcut or 4`key and the other way with :kbd:`Ctrl + ] shortcut or 6 key. Quick mouse based rotation is the Shift + Space and Shift + shortcuts. To reset rotation use the 5 key. very intuitive and easy to do. also look at its other canvas nav options. download krita 5 beta 5 which is the latest as of me writing this.https://docs.krita.org/en/user_manual/getting_started/navigation.html?highlight=canvas rotationhttps://krita.org/en/item/krita-5-0-0-beta-5-released/ simple video demonstration Edited December 6, 2021 by marsmotion a link was extended to a text string i did not need it to be extended to.

Intuos5 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 I agree, Shift+MMB or Spacebar+MMB to rotate the canvas with a pen tablet would be great. Quote

Why not just use the Pan/Scroll and gesture support in the Intuos tablet?

Albo Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Hi, I don't use the tablet with the touch option. Doesn't work well in the workflow, for me. Keyboard shortcut would be a lot better. Quote Mac Studio M1
Intuos5 Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 I have disabled the touch functionality, because it may mess up my lines at times and/ or navigate my view accidentally. I don't like using the gestures to begin with either. Quote
LOB Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 Has anyone been successful with using an iPad Pro as a second screen for your Mac (via sidecar) and being able to rotate screen? I'd like the similar drawing experience of my iPad, ability to easily rotate canvas as I go.... Quote
debraspicher Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 I prefer the method of holding R to rotate. It's easier to work quickly in my experience. CSP does the Shift + mouse method as well, but it works in 45s... which is more in line with a common use of that modifier in other usages. Quote
