How do I lock rotation view in Photoshop?

Word! This is by far one of the worst features ever initiated by adobe.....who has ever wanted this feature?

It all becomes clear when you look at things from the point of view of people who use Photoshop for drawing and painting. They’re the ones who want this feature.

Imagine you’re drawing with a pencil on paper (no computer). It’s a natural, intuitive thing to rotate the paper with your other hand when that makes it easier to draw a line or curve at a certain angle, or paint brush strokes at a certain angle. Being able to rotate the drawing/painting surface with your other hand has been something we humans have done for hundreds of years, maybe thousands. We expect to be able to do it.

In the first few decades of digital graphics, that intuitive historical ability was not available when all we had was a mouse or other input device with no way to input canvas rotation. When multi-touch trackpads became a thing, we finally had that traditional ability restored.

The post that started this thread asked:

I don't understand why Adobe allows the Rotation View to work without even having the tool selected.

Because that is the only way this feature makes sense. You are drawing or painting with a Brush tool, and you need to rotate the canvas. If this feature couldn’t work without the Rotate View tool selected, you would have switch to the Rotate View tool or call up a command to rotate the canvas, and then switch back to the tool you were using. With this feature, you simply use your other hand to rotate the canvas with a gesture on your trackpad…exactly how you would do it in the real world, without the clumsy extra steps of having to switch tools and back just to rotate the canvas.

For those who don’t want any multi-touch gestures to work in Photoshop, it can be disabled as shown in the picture below…

…or, if you’re using a Mac and want two-finger rotation disabled in all apps, do it in macOS System Settings > Trackpad as shown in the picture below. 

But there are people who want it to work exactly as it does.

I am having the same issue with CC 2019, disabling gestures doesn't prevent the canvas from rotating with a Cintiq. Particularly annoying when I'm just trying to zoom or pan, and have to manually re-orient the canvas every time. Is there a fix for this? (edit: I just found out esc resets it (derp) but it's still irritating)

That forum is outdated. And it doesn't apply to the newer version of Photoshop CC 2019. Please try again.

Also it seems stupid. Why would I need to download something in order to disable rotate?
