Let's not forget these relevant bug reports: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167926 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315051 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138462 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164828 I've made a tool in my program Laidout that uses a sort of 3 point transform: 1 point is a constant center of rotation/scaling, another optional point is a "shearing anchor", and the third point is wherever you click down on (not just on hard to get at handles, which might be off the screen somewhere). When you drag, the selection will be rotated, scaled, and sheared as appropriate to keep the one or two anchors in the same place. You can see a video tutorial here (the relevant bits start at about 1:55): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86ZiQjLDYlo I've also sent a mockup, with a potential perspective pushing around an axis variant of the above 3 point tool, to here: http://gimp-brainstorm.blogspot.com/ Tom --------------- http://www.tomlechner.com http://www.laidout.org _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
