Up to now, rotating shapes is supported via corner handles only. We should introduce direct support for rotating elements via rotate gestures.

Comment 1 Alexander Nyßen

Added support for gesture-based rotation as follows:
- Added FXRotateGesture, FXRotateTool, and AbstractFXRotatePolicy to support rotate-gesture-based interactions.
- Extracted FXRotatePolicy transaction policy from FXRotateSelectedOnHandleDragPolicy, to reuse it on rotation-gesture-based rotation.
- Implemented FXRotateSelectedOnRotatePolicy to realize rotation-behavior for selected nodes on rotation gesture events, registered in MVC Logo example.

Pushed all changes to origin/master. Resolving as fixed in 3.10.0M7.
