Angle Visualize when rotate from keyboard

It would be much more obvious if the angle of rotation would be visually displayed when turning using shortcuts, as well as with visual manipulators.

Not for me, thank you. seeing the actual object rotating is enough. I'd rather not have an enormous visualization blocking my view.

* @Jason van Gumster * ahaha it's a POV indeed

* @Jason van Gumster * agree, If I need strict rotation, i will use digits. If I need free rotation, I will use my eyes to see, how it looks.

But, for me it will be more comfortable to see angle of rotation (number) not in the top left corner, but near the object.

this topic already exists. but in fact proposing to show the angle on the row. if not you can see this information in the left top corner if the color of the world behind allows it... because black on dark color you have to be very very close of your screen. an no option of color for the overlay text. sometimes I wonder in what world a programmer lives

* @zgorg2004 * I'm sure that the contributing developer will find your last sentence encouraging and will with renewed vigour sacrifice his time for us.

* @richard * well I see what you mean but it's a fact for the moment the guy missed the information because in some situations it's impossible to see. and when you are programming you have to consider this kind of situations. almost if you receive money from contributers. this is not only sacrifice as you seem to think. they are well payed. sacrifice is more coming from guys doing thing free for the communauty. but this is still not sacrifice they like to do it so they do it and generally they accept to receive critics to evolve. but I accept yours. I thinks about this overlay information they are several topics asking for more settings for the users since several years here

* @zgorg2004 * So why suggest a full-on graphical overlay when the problem you describe could just as easily be solved with making the overlay text more themable?

* @Jason van Gumster * about visibility yes about showing the information this is another thing but I don't find the other topic with the information appearing in the wheel. it was no so in the face lol
