Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2015-03-28 11:11:19 UTC
In Impress and Draw, once you select a shape, another click will change to rotate mode and a click after that will change back to select mode. This is not available in Writer or Calc, where you have to click the rotate button in the toolbar in order to rotate.

Removing needsUX. With Gülşah's reference this might be an easyhack.

Gülşah's fix has been reverted on master, so it needs re-evaluation.

Affects both Calc and Writer, for all drawing objects (duplicates talk about fontwork and shapes).
