This plugin rotates polygons (and lines) to be parallel to the nearest reference segment; the reference can be a line or polygon layer (polygon boundary rings are treated as polylines). Two entry points are provided: a batch Processing algorithm that operates on whole layers, and an interactive map tool that lets you pick a reference line or polygon feature on the canvas and then click — or drag-rectangle — individual line/polygon features to rotate them in place. It is useful when working with streets and buildings. Before using the plugin, we strongly recommend checking your data for geometric errors.
