Sentry Crash Report:

Description Eiko Yumi 2015-05-16 14:46:11 UTC 
A very minor cosmetic bug. Rotating the canvas also causes the color sampler box invoked with the ctrl key to also rotate.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Rotate the canvas
2. Hold control
3. Observe the rotated color sampler box.

Actual Results:  
Color sampler box is rotated

Expected Results:  
As the tool palette maintains the usual orientation no matter what is the canvas rotation, it is my expectation that the color sampler box should do the same.

Comment 3 Halla Rempt 2015-08-25 13:14:42 UTC 
It's a feature :P I wonder, do we have other on-canvas things that are rotated, too?
Comment 4 Vitamorus 2024-11-13 22:49:42 UTC 
Re-confirmed for 5.2.6.

Make sampler preview not rotate/mirror with canvas

It being a circle now makes this a lot easier, since we just need to
modify its contents instead of displacing the entire thing.
