How to unblock Rotate&Scale

Help/How To

The Size, Position & Rotate filter is superior and more intuitive in many ways:

  1. It is compatible with proxy editing (Offset X and Y in Rotate and Scale were not).
  2. The “Scale” parameter in Rotate and Scale was redundant with the “Size” in Size and Position.
  3. The “Offset” parameters in Rotate and Scale were redundant with the “Position” in Size and Position.
  4. The Zoom parameter in the new filter is almost exactly the same as the old Scale.
  5. The Rotate parameter in the new filter is exactly the same as the old Rotate.
  6. Rotate and Scale had no VUI (controls on top of the video preview).
  7. A rotation handle was added to the Size, Position & Rotate VUI with snapping.
  8. The Size, Position & Rotate VUI lets you zoom using the mouse wheel.
  9. The Size, Position & Rotate VUI lets you rotate using Ctrl+Wheel.
  10. The Size, Position & Rotate VUI lets you rotate using two fingers on a touch pad.
  11. The old Rotate and Scale only rotated around the center point. The new filter lets you rotate around any of 9 points based on the Horizontal and Vertical fit options.
  12. The old Rotate and Scale only scaled while keeping the center stationary. The new filter lets you choose the stationary point using the Horizontal and Vertical fit options.

You are free to use any version you want.
