Good point...
Not to be contrary, but:
What about when you are speaking in terms of computers, and specifically
images? Seems like if the subject is "images on the computer",
"rotation" falls more closely to "rotating on an axis" and not "changing
of images".
For example, I was driving down the road the other day, and I saw
temporary road construction sign that said "Road Const ahead". Now, my
first thought was "Constant" as in C++. But, wait, this is not
programing, this is driving, and they must mean "Construction".
As a graphic designer maybe I have some bias... I when I use Photoshop I
do not think of Rotation as moving images from the front of the stack to
the back of the stack (if I have a bunch open)... Rotation clearly means
(in the PS world) rotating an image on an axis.
Now, in terms of a slide-show, rotation makes some sense, but IMHO I
think word is improperly used.
