Huh?  you are saying that OrCAD uses the keybinding Ctrl+R to rotate?
If some programs use Ctrl+R and you can name them please do, i am all for
consistancey.

I need to finish the changes i made to the keybindings pretty soon too
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87157

Please add a comment, and a link to the web page of the mailing list
archive where you suggest it so that when i am making changes i can easily
find this thread again.

consistancey, unless it makes more sense to use Ctrl+R for something else
(and i am fairly sure it doesn't, Redo is being changed to Ctrl+Shift+Z by
the way), i quite like the idea but It would kind of help if we actually
had a feature to do simple rotation (the hardest thing for me about
programming this is finding the time to do it, it should be a simple
enough mathematical tranformation i could probably even find GPL code from
Kivio or Sodopodi or Sketch).

In fact now that i think about it a bit more i think i suggested using
"Turn Left Ctrl+L, Turn Right Ctrl+R" which i think is what Visio uses.

Simple Rotation has been mentioned before and i would have sworn there was
a bug report but i cannot find it for the life of and i am going to open a
new one...

Flip Horizontal    Ctrl+I
Flip Vertical      Ctrl+J

Kinda appeals to the maths geek in me ... and agian is used in Visio
(consistancey).
