Some components can be rotated by selecting them, and then hitting the space bar, or rotating by selecting the rotate button. It would be helpful if there was a rotate option when the component is selected. For instance, highlighting a toilet brings up the little arrows which can flip the toilet 180 degrees. Adding a rotate arrow so that instead of highlighting the toilet then going up to the menu bar, and selecting the rotate function, one could just click on the rotate arrow on the toilet and rotate it.

 

Thanks

Spacebar can rotate components, but unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on what you prefer I suppose) when you have the flip arrows the spacebar controls those instead of rotating.

Right. I usually will use the spacebar to rotate a component as i place them into the drawing. But if there is a change to which way the toilet is facing, it would be nice to have a rotate arrow showing, like the flip arrows. As when hitting the spacebar it only flips the toilet, not rotate it 90 degrees.
