DocViewer: Rotate page/image

[herriott10ad]

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

In the current beta, there is no method for rotating a document. Instructors cannot compensate for students who post PDFs in landscape format (for example). 

Please consider adding a button to rotate 90 degrees (left or right) to better enable instructors to allow alternate rendering and viewing of these documents.

For more information, please read through the Canvas Release Notes (2018-10-06) .

A student will submit a jpg in portrait mode but gets displayed to instructor in landscape mode. Ability to rotate jpg in SpeedGrader would be welcome.

This would REALLY help!

This would be super helpful! My students load documents upside down all the time.  It is super hard to use the document grader when their test is upside down.

[rstegman]

Yes. This should be seen in the light of a bug fix rather than the addition of a new feature.

Have you ever had to grade a test upside down?  Please, please make this improvement as it will be extremely helpful.  Thank you! 

[mfalker]

this would be wonderful!

Yes, please! I allow students to submit photographs of work they've completed by hand (e.g. idea maps for brainstorming essays). It would be lovely to not have to download submissions to be able to see them. 🙂

The same problem affects jpegs.

Great Idea!

PLEASE allow a rotate feature for speed grader! I would love to be able to directly look at an image without having to rotate my head instead of the image. Thanks!
