Crop Orientation not changing PL9

DxO PhotoLab
1

I’ve searched and found all of the answers to drag a corner. When I do that, the entire photo moves, not the crop frame. The few times I did get it to change to portrait, the photo goes to 45 deg. When I correct the horizon, the crop mask reverts to landscape.

If I click the buttons at the bottom of the screen to rotate left or right, the entire image rotates, not just the crop frame.

This is kind of an archaic way to swap orientation. Should be a simple click of a button to rotate the crop 90 deg.

Works fine here.

Reduce the crop temporarily so that you can clearly access the corner handles…

Drag the top right corner handle, in a dead straight line, until it “snaps” to vertical…

Thanks for the video demonstration. The instructions to ‘grab a corner’ led me to think I was using the rotate tool, not the resize tool. Even the still of your video shows the rotate tool in use.

That’s because the cursor is near the handle, not on it.

I understand that. My point is, the instructions most give lead one to believe they need to use the rotate tools (ie: “grab a corner”) as opposed to the resize tool.
