For one thing, the rotate gesture is a pain to get OS X to recognize as it is (on our Magic Trackpad), so it's unlikely to be accidentally triggered. If they do brush the trackpad and rotate it, it's likely they'll understand that it was due to a rotation gesture, and they can just as easily rotate it back. Alternatively, we can possibly provide a context menu "Reset Rotation", if need be. F5 works as-is.</div><div><br></div><div>I agree that it should respect the OS's rotate setting.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>All that sounds great to me!</div><div></div></div></div></span></blockquote><div>
