How to shift the canvas? (rotate?)

Ofnuts,

I thought that this option via the menu would be to rotate parts like layer, selection, path or image, but I had no idea that it was about rotating the canvas!

  • Rotation is done with Shift-middle button
  • Zoom is done with Ctrl-middle button
  • To reset use !

Of these 03 options, I don't get any results with Shift-middle button. (actually it looks like this centers the canvas horizontally)

Now, with the option via the View ➤ Flip & Rotate menu I can reproduce the effect I carelessly produced.  Smile

But the mystery remains.
I didn't use any menus when I accidentally rotated the canvas.
As far as I'm aware (it was 2:30am and I was sleepy) I was just using the Free Select Tool combined with keys to keep the selections straight.

Maybe I accidentally pressed a key...

Every day is the day to learn something new with Gimp!

Thank you!

Ofnuts, thank you!
