THANK YOU!
This will be a real time saver for me...
I am half way through post processing my Jordan trip photos and this is a fantastic tip!
I use Arbitrary Rotate a lot but estimate the degree of rotation by sight.
PS I find Clockwise and CC much more instinctive than Left and Right. After all I am rotating around a central point so how would I know whether Left meant the top of the image moving to the left or the bottom of the image?
I'm gonna piggie back on this one based on past experiences on DPC.
If you think an image on DPC isn't straight horizontally or vertically, and don't want to take it into your image editing program to check, try this little trick.
Set your browser window so it isn't full screen, then make it small enough so the entire image won't fit in the browser window. Now use the sides of the browser and the scroll features to compare vertical elements to the side of the browser window and horizontals to the top/bottom. It'll quickly show you whether or not an image is rotated away from true square and maybe avoid some silly comments. *grin*

I sometimes combine your techniques with the crop tool, either measuring the angle first and rotating the crop to the same setting, or moving the crop marquee in close until I can rotate it parallel to something straight, amd then expanding the marquee back to the full dimensions.
