How to Access

Select an image node and click the Rotate button in the toolbar. A floating panel opens with these controls:

  • Angle input — type a precise angle (0–360°), or use the 90° button to snap to right angles
  • Flip horizontal — mirror the image left-to-right
  • Flip vertical — mirror the image top-to-bottom

Preview

As you adjust the angle or toggle flips, the image updates in real time on the canvas. You can compare different rotations before clicking Save.

Save

Clicking Save applies the rotation permanently: the image is re-rendered on the client side, the new file is uploaded, and the node updates with the correct dimensions.

Tips

  • Use 90° increments for quick landscape-to-portrait conversions
  • Flip horizontal is useful for reversing the direction of a subject
  • Combine rotate + flip to achieve any orientation
  • The tool works on any image node regardless of its source
