Hello.
I'm using ImageCropper Control but I would like to add image rotation to can you tell me what I should do to add that.

Example:

@michael-hawker is the image rotation feature feasible in ImageCropper control?

@Hakobyan888 could you give a bit more details for your scenario? The ImageCropper's original design intent was to allow for creating circular or rectangular crops for profile images or other image reductions.

Are you wanting to be able to rotate the rectangular crop area and then get that area with like solid/transparent pixels outside of the crop area? Where would you use the resulting image?

Thanks!

@michael-hawker my goal is to rotate image and the cropping rect will maximally fit init and the rect could not get out of rotated image bounds. Is it possible to integrate this scenario to ImageCropper control.

Thanks!!

Thanks @Hakobyan888, I saw your question on stackoverflow when searching for an example image. That level of detail with the images like this helps with these types of requests:

@HHChaos you know the insides and out of this control - think you could give some pointers here? I could see a property like CanRotateImage for this scenario being useful, though I think the trickiest part is the UX design around the input for the image rotation and as @Hakobyan888 found with the proper crop bounds remaining inside the image, eh?
