Note

The icons representing the functions in the toolbars are different

depending on the operating system used and on whether OOo

has been customized for the Linux distribution in use or not.

When in doubt, hover the mouse over the icons and wait for the

tooltip to appear showing the name of the button. The tooltip for

the sub-toolbar containing the Rotate function is Effects.

3) Eight red handles replace the green square handles, as shown in

Figure 73. Move the mouse over one of the corner handles and

the mouse cursor shape will change. Click the mouse and move in

the direction in which you want to rotate the graphic object.

4) When satisfied release the mouse button.

Figure 73: Shape showing the red rotating handles. Only

the corner ones are active. The black crosshair indicates

the rotation pivot.

At step 2) a black crosshair with a circle appears in the middle of the

picture: this represents the pivot point for the rotation. Normally the

center of the picture will be just fine, but on some occasions you may

wish to rotate around a corner or even around a point outside the

picture; to do that, click on the crosshair and drag it to the desired

position.

To restrict the rotation angles to multiples of 15 degrees, press the

Shift key while rotating the graphic. This is very handy for rotating

pictures through a right angle, for example from portrait to landscape

or back.

Instead of rotating a graphic object manually, you can use the

Rotation dialog box shown in Figure 74. To display this dialog box,

select the graphic object so that the green resizing handles are shown,

then press F4 or select Format > Position and Size and select the

Rotation page.
