Any way to rotate the ruler/straight edge? 
No options or configurations seem to work with my Wacom Intuos touch or wheel. Computer itself has no touch.

Hello somnixer,

 

You can use R+Stylus to rotate the Ruler.

For those trying to do this on a Windows desktop and having trouble, something I had to figure out was that the ruler has a pivot point. You can only rotate it at the pivot point. Hold down R and press down on the ruler with your drawing pen. You'll see a little blue box pop up with the current angle of the ruler. By letting go of R, you can can then use your pen to position the pivot point where you want it. Hold down R again, and press down on the ruler with your pen at the pivot point. This will let you rotate it. This works with a mouse as well, at least on Windows 10.

this doesn't work, at least on Windows. I found that I can move the ruler with the stylus, but I haven't found a way to rotate it.

Correction: I just had an outdated Wacom Tablet. I just purchased the newest Intuos Pro, and it does work!

Is there an alternative solution for a mouse?
I just tried to hold down R and all three mouse buttons and nothing worked.

Hello Sjaani,

 

It's currently not supported but we are working on enabling it as well.
