Hello,

I am no advance photo editor, so maybe there is already a better way to go about this. I use the cloning tool a lot and there are often times that an area to clone would be perfect if it was able to be rotated. Is this possible in anyway? A good example is when I doing hair and there is a perfect section of the hair to clone but I wish I could rotate the area once cloned. Select the area to be clone > move cursor where clone needs to be applied > hotkey to rotate the clone > click and apply the clone :)

Thanks for any help.

The current Clone tool doesn't offer this but we have the functionality marked in our to-do list somewhere. While it's not a particularly burning feature but a nice-to-have one, for sure!
