Modifier option to manually edit/rotate the transform bounding box

[Boldline]

I was thinking how helpful it might be to have a keyboard modifier to click a corner of a selection bounding box and rotate it to reset the angle of it manually. This way you would not have to move the selected object from it's location to reset the bounding box and this could also help with doing other transitions like the warp tool from alternative angles, not just 90 degrees

What helped prompt this idea was working on some word art where I need to alter the angles of expanded letters and then warp and stretch and compress them to fit well in a space. If I could reset bounding box in an easier manner, it would help to expedite the design process

@Boldline Something like this https://recordit.co/yxRPCQFoXl ?
If so, it will be in 1.2

@VectorStyler Very excited about v1.2. I not asking about ETA, just want to know how close we are to test v1.2

Lets say that several months away. Hard to promise an ETA. There were some changes (increases) in the scope so cannot release this year.

But I do not want to create too much expectations, and I will improve the 1.1 in the meanwhile continuously.
There is always some lessons to learn from recent events

@VectorStyler Yes. Fixing existing bugs and improvement is more welcomed.

Easy does it!

What? Come on now, I was expecting a vague but trendy hype video complete with added glitches and special effects and mysterious music with a closeup of @VectorStyler 's face to be released any day now!

Seriously though, I'm as anxious as everyone here to begin testing out VS1.2 but I appreciate the honesty concerning the timetable and I'd rather skip the hype if there's nothing but fluff and no filler behind the smoke. As @Jayanta-Das mentioned, fixing existing bugs and improvement is more welcomed. I'm sure we all have a few specific bugs or functionality issues we've reported over the last few months that we'd rather see fixed as soon as possible over new features and the hype of a new big update. Speaking for myself, there are a few bugs/limitations that hamper my productivity and keep me from being able to use VS fully and without other vector software. Selfishly, I would prefer those get fixed more than any major update. lol. To his credit, @VectorStyler has been methodically fixing them.

I use VS for almost everything I do that is vector related nowadays - which is a far cry from the limited use a year and a half ago. Thank you @VectorStyler, for building VS on a solid foundation and know that we're behind you 100%
