XnShell 3.5.1: User interface - "Rotate" menu

[helmut]

Another suggestion to make things simpler and more consistent in XnShell:

Menu "Rotate": Order and naming of menu items

XnShell 3.5.1 - Current menu


XnShell - Suggestion


Notes:
The order of menu items has changed, a seperator was added, and two labels have changed a bit:
Rotate --> Rotate/Flip
Rotate based on EXIF tag --> Rotate based on EXIF value

In XnView MP the term "Mirror" is used whereas in XnView Classic it says "Flip". I'm not a native speaker but I think "Mirror" is always confusing because the mirror might be horizontal (as a result it would mirror vertically) or the mirroring might be horizontally.

Makes sense.

Thanks for digging the web, XnTriq.

So:
- In XnView MP this menu item should be renamed to "Flip".
- In XnView Classic the order of the menu items "Horizontal" and "Vertical" should be swapped ("Horizontal" at top and "Vertical" at bottom) and thus made consistent with XnView MP.
