I am using the module to annotate images by setting the image as the background and canvas as a layer on top of the image. Now when I am trying to rotate the canvas, the background image is rotated but the pen behaves weird by moving in different directions.

Can we please have an option for a rotating background?

Here is the small video snippet I created for a better understanding:-

Very interesting use case!

I'll try out something this weekend. Incase you figure out a solution please send a pull request.

Hi Vinoth,

Did you get a chance to look at it? Would really appreciate.

Hi @akashdeepsinghal. Sorry, I did not have the time to look at it.

As a workaround, for now, you can use the underlying Canvas implementation and update the paths on rotation. You can look at issue #14 as a reference.

Once I have time (maybe October), I will add a flag to enable rotation.

Hey @vinothpandian
If possible, can you please look into it? This would be really really helpful for us. 🙏🏻
