Description Jørn Christensen 2011-09-04 20:56:21 UTC 
Feature request:
When using the transform tool (perspective tool), it could be nice to be able to rotate it. So if you were adjusting the perspective of an image, but found out you were about to make a non-horizontal horizon, you could just press (e.g.) the alt-key, and then rotate the drawn transform-region around its centre of mass.

I think this feature could be applied to the shear tool as well.

I have some patches already that implement this, you can build the branch "hackperspective" from git://git.mika.l3ib.org/gimp if you want to try it.
Comment 2 Martin Nordholts 2011-09-05 05:06:58 UTC 
What we need is a unified transform tool
