If i rotate a layer and then resize it, the whole layer moves around instead of staying at position and just resizing.
On the video you first see sizing as it should behave (it isn't rotated and stays at the location).
After that, you see how the layer is moving around all over the place when trying to resize while it is rotated.

Hi
Thanks for the report. By design, it is attempting to maintain the position of the opposite point to where it is being dragged (not the top corner). But I agree, it does not look good the way it performs and we will investigate.

It would be nice if it would stick to the position and just resize as needed. The way it works right now makes it really useless for certain things like image composition or designing tasks. When the image jumps around and moves and resizes uncontrollably, it makes it too hard if not impossible to do some layer works like in photoshop (Placing, resizing and moving images and layers exactly)
Thanks for investigating :-) |

Maybe if you fixate all points and only move the grabbed point to the mouse instead of letting al 4 points of the image jump around wildly according to some calculation it does in the background. |

Hi
It's not quite that simple, when an image layer is rotated, the origin point (i.e. the top left of the box that contains the rotated layer) is not visible. The points that you see onscreen are all calculated. If you drag the right-hand side of a layer that is rotated slightly anti-clockwise, then we must move the top-left origin, otherwise the image will actually move down as we size it.
