Rotating with the transform points tool.

[toymaker1]

Hello.
I am just starting to learn Anime Studio Pro 11 on an iMac OSX 10.11.
On page 40 of the User manual, it shows an 'Apply' button next to the Rotation window in the options bar, to apply the rotation which has been entered into the Rotation box.
I do not seem to have an 'Apply' window in my Workspace. I can only rotate a shape manually. Can anyone tell me if this is correct? or am I doing something wrong.?

Thanks for advice.

Off the top of my head, maybe you don't have the correct tool selected (translate/transform) layer tool. Or maybe your screen size is too small and it's not showing.

Are you sure you're talking about the Transform Points tool? AFAIK, there is no Apply button for Transform Points. You just make a selection of points, choose the Transform Points tool and then click and drag in the part of the tool widget for the effect you want. Optionally, you can enter a value in any of the boxes and you just press the Enter or Tab key on your keyboard or click in an empty space.

Edit: I just looked at my old version 10 and I noticed the Apply button exists there so I'm guessing it was removed from version 11 in favor of the Enter key.

I see now that the manual needs to be updated for version 11.
Now you enter the number then click on the 'Rotation' button. On Windows at least, if you press the 'Enter' key nothing will happen.

in 11.2 that "rotation" button has gone ... type a number and press 'enter'.

((but point rotation actually results in a _translation_ of each of the selected points to their new positions; so, once you've used the rotate option to move the points, the angle resets to zero with the points in their new position... ))

11.2?

I guess that's still a beta version, hasn't been released yet, has it?
