Hi I just want to ask if theres a possible way to rotate a canvas using the rotate view tool without having to see the compass?

I see this happening if the canvas is really far zoomed out. However when I zoom in the compass shows up again. It kinda annoys me somehow whenever I'm making my first fast sketches where I usually just mess around with my lines to get enough anchor on my subject or what not. Hopefully there's a way

If you're not getting it, it's because your current graphics card/driver doesn't support it. Try to update your driver first.

This is the biggest pain in the ass in photoshop. Im always having to try to figure out how to get the damn photo to go back to straight.

Tap the Escape key to get out of Rotate and return to the normal straight view

Hey, normally it disappears when you release the mouse (after rotating). Is that the case on your screen?

And as far as I know there is no possibility yet to hide the compass when you're rotating the canvas...
