A pattern or a selected group of patterns can be rotated with the mouse. Select the
pattern and click on it once again; the rotation symbols appear in the pattern corners
and the rotation center symbol appear on the pattern. The rotation center can be moved
with the mouse in any position so as the pattern will rotate around that position. If you
drag the rotation symbols in the pattern corners you will rotate the pattern or the group
of selected patterns around the rotation center.
Hold down
While rotating a
pattern to rotate it
with exact angles
45°, 90°, 180°.
First, the rotation center will be
centered to the pattern.
The rotation center can be moved to
another position; the pattern will rotate

To rotate a pattern by exact 15°, hold down CTRL while moving the mouse. You will be
able to fast rotate the pattern by 45, 90, 180 degrees.
If you hold down ALT key while moving the rotation center, you can magnetize it on any
point, so the point will become the rotation center.

to check the pattern joining in a specific point.
