Rotating Images
Canvas X Draw gives you the ability of applying a soft rotate or hard rotate to your images. A soft rotate is sufficient if you do not need to export the images to another format; however, if you plan on exporting your images and need them to remain rotated, then you should apply a hard rotate. A hard rotate not only rotates the image but also adds white pixels to the bounding box. Soft rotate does not add pixels.
Anti-Aliasing for Rotated Bitmaps
Sometimes bitmap images can lose their clarity when they are rotated. The anti-aliasing for rotated bitmaps feature addresses this issue. If you’re rotating a bitmap and select Hard rotate for image in the Rotate dialog box, the Anti-alias image checkbox becomes available. The anti-aliasing option results in a smoother, better quality image.
To Hard Rotate an Image with the Rotate Dialog Box:
- Choose Effects | Rotate Right or Rotate Left | Other.
- Make sure you select Hard rotate for image to enable Anti-alias image.
| ||
Original bitmap before rotation. | Original bitmap after rotation with Anti-aliasing off. | Bitmaps will not attain a pixelated appearance after rotation if Anti-aliasing is on. |
To Quickly Rotate Images at Multiples of 90°:
- Select the image.
- Click on the Rotate button in the Properties bar.
- Select a hard rotate option in the menu and enter a value of 90° (or a multiple) in the field and press Enter.
