[Qgis-user] QGIS rotate entire rendered map

[Bjorn Nyberg]

Hej,
I am slowly trying to move away from arcgis to open source software like 
grass and qgis but there is one feature that I really like in arcgis 
that I cant seem to find in QGIS in my transition. Simply enough, i'd 
like to rotate all layers in the current rendered window to say 
90degrees relative to north as I map a feature (note I am not talking 
about rotating the final map output as suggested here 
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/54060/can-qgis-1-8-0-mac-rotate-the-entire-view-of-a-project).//I 
use this feature quiet a lot in arcgis (data frame properties -- general 
-- rotation) to map especially elongated feature at a resolution that 
otherwise won't fit on my screen and I assume that there must be 
something equivalent in qgis that I have simply not noticed.

Cheers,
Bjorn
