Microsoft has finally added a feature many Paint users have been asking for. The latest update, version 11.2601.391.0, introduces freeform rotate.
Until now, Paint only let you rotate selections in fixed steps like 90 or 180 degrees. That was fine for simple edits, but frustrating for anything precise. With freeform rotate, you can now grab a handle and rotate shapes, text, or selections to any angle you want. If you need accuracy, you can also enter a custom degree manually.
The update is currently rolling out to Windows Insiders in the Dev and Canary channels. If you do not want to wait, you can manually install the package.
Paint has also recently gained new AI tools, including a coloring book generator.
