Agreed, I don’t understand the logic here — how is it intuitive for rotating clockwise/counter-clockwise to map to up/down arrows? At the very least, shouldn’t this be left/right arrows?
Either way, huge +1 that longstanding hotkeys should never be silently changed. Really poor experience here. Hoping this gets reverted so the team can be a bit more thoughtful about the decision here.
I'm glad this post already exists. There's nothing worse than changing established shortcuts that you constantly use when working with a layout. If you compare the frequency of layer reordering with the need to rotate a layer, I'm sure the result would be unfavorable. Who even thought of reassigning the most frequently used shortcut to a rare action and ruining the user experience?
