Image rotation - newbie question

Using guides is a really good habit to get into, however there is also the built-in grid, View -> Show Grid If using a lot, set up a keyboard shortcut. I wonder how many users bother to set it up globally for their particular use Edit -> Preferences -> Default Image -> Default Grid This can be adjusted on an image-by-image basis Image -> Configure Grid the settings are saved with the image in .xcf format.

Gimp 2.10 has additional tools. The measure tool now straightens. Follow a vertical (or horizontal) surface, click on straighten.
