- Move the pointer off the right side of the selected artwork, and begin dragging clockwise. As
you drag, press Option+Shift (macOS) or Alt+Shift (Windows) to copy the artwork as you
rotate it, and constrain the rotation to 45°. Release the mouse button and then the keys when
you see –90° in the measurement label.
The Properties panel (or Control panel or Transform panel) is another way to rotate artwork
precisely. In the Transform panel, you can always see the angle of rotation and change it later
for individual objects.
