next thing to work on would be to make it so it will actually rotate them further than 90 degrees based upon the distance traveled by the mouse. if that's possible of course.
That's not a common use case so I think it'd only lead to more accidents.
FYI, this will be used as another way to let people rotate their pictures in Fotobilder/Scrapbook. A surprising number of modern digital cameras (an uh, all analog cameras) don't have orientation sensors.
I was just having to rotate a couple hundred pictures for a friend who sent me a photo CD without EXIF data and got a little annoyed. :-)
new fb rotating stuff? awesome. the current interface with the buttons works but this would be quicker for the user.
and yeah, that would have taken quite some time. always good to figure out new ways to make the computer do the work for you. unfortunately, the person has to come up with what the computer has to do first. XD
While that's neat, I can't help but think it would be more intuitive just to have "rotate left" and "rotate right" buttons. I'm not too hot at making little circular motions with my mouse because it's not a motion I do very often.
