How do I rotate the image?

I am using Adobe Photoshop CC and I need to know how to rotate an image.

This is probably more than you ever wanted to know about rotating an image. It is an Information Sheet I wrote and distributed to my students and you may find it helpful.
Three popular methods used to straighten a tilted scene, such as the one shown the first photograph above, are Image Rotation, Straighten and the Level feature in the Crop tool. Each requires you to draw a horizon line or similar reference as a first step in the process, and each produces slightly different result.
Image Rotation*:
  1. Choose the Ruler tool. (It is nested with the Eyedropper tool.) Click and drag a reference line as shown in the middle image in the top row above.  (The area around the image was lightened and red circles were added for clarity.) Depending upon the subject, the line may be horizontal, as seen here, or vertical.
  2.  Choose Image > Image Rotation > Arbitrary. When the Rotate Canvas menu appears, click OK. The result will be similar to Fig.1 above, showing the entire image.
Straighten*:
Once again, begin by choosing the Ruler tool and drawing the reference line. A feature was added to the Ruler tool in version CS5 and it appears in the Options bar: the Straighten command. Click on it and the image will be rotated and cropped as seen at the top/right. If you prefer to have the image rotated but not cropped you may either:
  1. Hold down the Option key as you click on the Straighten command.
  or
  2. After clicking on the Straighten command, choose Edit > Undo Crop.
In either case the result will be similar to Fig. 1 above.
The Straighten command, which also appears in CS6, produces a similar image rotation and trims a small amount of picture area as seen in Fig. 2.
The Crop Tool’s Level symbol:
This latest innovation, introduced in CS6, uses a command found in the Options bar of the Crop tool. The equivalent of the Ruler tool is built into the carpenter’s level symbol to the left of the word Straighten in the Options bar. Click on the level and draw the reference line. The image will rotate and the largest rectangular dimensions will be framed by the Crop tool plus, in a shaded area, the part of the image that will be eliminated. This allows you to adjust the image area if desired before cropping the image. The result, before clicking on the Commit key on the right side of the Options bar, appears as seen in Fig. 3.
* When Image Rotation or Straighten is used to tilt the image, each of which also shows blank areas created by the rotation, consider using the Content Aware Fill command,
An oldie but goodie: Crop & Straighten
The image below shows the result when File > Automate > Crop & Straighten Photos was applied to a three-image gang scan. Note that:
  1. Each print has clearly defined sides.
  2. Each print was separated from the others by at least a half-inch.
This command creates a separate file for each cropped image and leaves the original file intact.

  • How do i rotate the shape

    how do i rotate the image in draw

    How is hiding such basic functionality as rotate 2 clicks deep in Adobe Draw better than how it was handled in Adobe Ideas? This really makes the process a whole lot slower. Why not put that functionality right there in the base tool bar or at the very least give users the choice to add it to the forefront tools so we don't have to go clicking through the equivalent of sub-menus. It's a waste of time.
    Further more losing the arrows to undo from the tool bar and replacing that functionality with a two finger swipe is also slower. If you want any level of precision you use a stylus to draw with, so please once again give the user the choice to add those in through a pref setting because it's faster to click with the stylus than it is to swipe with two fingers when you're holding a stylus. And attempting to do it with your non-dominant hand means you'll keep accidentally drawing a line so it actually makes the whole process slower.
    Also removing the ability to email a simple PDF is just a step backwards. Your twitter account said that will be coming back but who is the genius that thought that was a smart move to lose that functionality? I use that literally all the time when I use Adobe Ideas. So the sooner the better on getting that back.
    And lastly your iconography for the tools. Be a bit more literal to communicate better. For example your erase tool I thought was an empty zone I could some how create and save my own nib too. (That is functionality that would be cool BTW) So the icon was a huge fail since that is suppose to be an eraser. Make it look like an eraser. This is UX 101. Give users the choice to add the eraser to the tool palette so it's a quicker access, you know like reality the eraser is always right there when you're drawing it's not filed away in a cup with my other pens.
    Send to Illustrator is pretty brilliant. That is working very well.

  • How do you rotate an image in a Slideshow?

    DVDSP4 automatically rotates an image regardless. The problem is I don't want it rotated. How the heck do you rotate the image? There is no option in any of the menus or inspector windows I've found.

  • How do I rotate an image itself?

    I understand how to use affine transforms to rotate an image as I'm drawing it but I need to rotate the image object itself. I cant find anything in the API. Is there anyway to do this?
    Thanks.

    I meant "How do I rotate an image in java?" I know I can load the image into gimp or whatever and create a new image. But that means my applet will have to download 4 times as many images to the client. I need to rotate an image object itself within java.

  • How can I rotate the page of a document by a specific angle

    Hi,
    I want to know how I can rotate the page by a specific angle, (eg: like 10 degrees).
    I tried PDPageSetRotate but it can change only in the multiple of 90, due to PDRotate.

    You can have the image optimization and OCR operations performed programmatically.  Look at at the AVCommand APIs and associated sample code.
    Deskew is an image processing operation that simply requires the bits.  You can do that by simply getting the image bits and applying the algorithm(s).

  • How do I set the image size in PS touch to print to my Epson printer w ithout losing any of the picture. PS Touch appears to be showing pixels and not inches, how can I covert it toshow inches?

    I am using PS Touch from my tablet . I am importinga photo from an SD card . When all editing is completed I then send it wireless from the tablet  via Epson I print to the printer. It all works great except that part of the photo at each end is cut off and does not print. I am printing on 8.5 x11 paper.
    How do I convert the image size in PSTouch frm pixels to inches?

    Epson's iPrint has always been an oddball. It will always "zoom in" on an image to print even if you have the proper dimensions and resolution set for actual print size. I think other users have reported this, at least on Android.
    You can't have PS Touch show inches instead of pixels at this time but you can use an online website to find out what you need to fit within a particular resolution. (Google "pixels to inches calculator".)

    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
    If you want to back up the Photos only:
    Export them using the File -> Export command.
    This User Tip

    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

    How can we get the image which is stored in clipboard by labview, i can get the text in clipboard by using invoke node directly.but i cannot get the image, is there any functions or vi available.(image is in Png format)

    The Read from Clipboard method is, unfortunately, limited to text. If the clipboard contains an image then you need to use OS-specific functions calls. This is an example program for Windows. It's old, but it should still work.

  • How do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it when you just play a slideshow.

    how do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it with presets when you just play a slideshow, but i don't see an option to randomly shuffle the slide order when you create a new slideshow.  i know you can sort it by different fields, but i want it to be random.  thanks.

    If you want to rearrange images in random order you can try an AppleScript:
    retrieve a list of selected images from Aperture
    shuffe the list properly
    create an album in Aperture and add the images from the list to the album (make sure that the album set to be orederd manually)
    Here  is a sample script that shuffles the selected images and displays them in random order in Full Screen Mode:
    on removeItem(ims, i)
      -- remove the item at position "i" from a list ims
              if ims is {} then return {}
              if (length of ims is 1) then return {}
              if i < 2 then return rest of ims
              if (i = length of ims) then return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims)
              if i > (length of ims) then return ims -- should be error?
              return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims) & (items (i + 1) thru (length of ims) of ims)
    end removeItem
    on shuffle_items(ims)
      -- shuffle the items of the list "ims" randomly
              local numitems, ims_shuffled, nextrest, nextpick, i
              set numitems to length of ims
              if length of ims < 2 then return ims
              set ims_shuffled to {}
              set nextrest to ims
              repeat until nextrest is {}
                        set i to (random number (numitems - 1)) + 1
                        set nextpick to item i of nextrest
                        set beginning of ims_shuffled to nextpick
                        set numitems to numitems - 1
                        set nextrest to removeItem(nextrest, i)
              end repeat
              return ims_shuffled
    end shuffle_items
    on shuffleIms()
      -- retrieve the selected images from Aperture
      -- and display them in random order in full screen mode
              local imageSel, shuffled, i
              tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                        set imageSel to (get selection)
                        set shuffled to my shuffle_items(imageSel)
                        set fullscreen to true
                        if imageSel is {} then error "Please select some images."
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  reveal {item i of shuffled}
      delay 3 -- chnage that to the time you want
                        end repeat
                        set fullscreen to false
                        return shuffled
              end tell
    end shuffleIms
    shuffleIms()
    Some more code snippets to go from here:
    To create an album:
                        tell library 1
                                  if not (exists album "shuffledAlbum") then
      make new album with properties {name:"shuffledAlbum", image version:shuffled}
                                  end if
                        end tell
    And to add the images from the shuffled list to the album:
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  duplicate item i of shuffled to album "shuffledAlbum"
                        end repeat
