Description BrianB 2025-12-01 00:23:44 UTC
Description:
Cannot get a picture to rotate 180 degrees. I can rotate 90 in either dir, but nothing happens for 180. If i flip horizontal or vertical, the image shows upside down and backwards. If i try both, it returns to normal.
I updated to the latest version, no help.
This happens whether i paste the picture in or add it via insert-picture

Steps to Reproduce:
1.paste picture in doc
2. try to flip it 180 deg
3. try to flip horiz, then vert (or vsv)

Actual Results:
It ignores 180 deg and horz + vert returns to normal

Expected Results:
Either effort should leave the image appearing normal upside down, such that if you rotated the printed page 180 degrees it would be readable (if text present)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

STR?

"paste picture" what type of image/graphic? What type of anchor is used, 'To character', 'As character', 'To paragraph', hidden 'To page'

It works fine with JPEGs.

BMPs rotate but don't update canvas immediately need Undo & Redo to draw. 

PNGs rotate but also don't update canvas, need Undo & Redo to redraw.

GIFs rotate but also don't update canvas, need Undo & Redo to redraw

Animated GIFs rotate and refresh canvas, when object selected, but revert to non-rotated when focus is moved.

Which "issue" to address? Is this simple dupe of bug 164063

PNG, but It's working now. I fell to the age old presumtion that rebooting had been done, i guess.

Go ahead and close the ticket.

Thanks for all your work
