I never knew this was an option. I was viewing a video from Finder in QuickLook. While jumping back and forth between apps, I accidentally hit Cmd-L in Finder when I intended to be in Safari (to copy a URL). The video rotated left. Cmd-R, predictably at this point, rotated back to the right. I assume images would work as well, but the video hasn’t finished playing so I haven’t confirmed.
I’ve been a Mac power user for decades and this was a satisfying discovery.
Believe it or not, you can actually do a decent amount of editing it in Quick Look. I discovered that myself not long ago, but you don’t have to open the Preview app or anything – Quick Look can handle it.
Funnily enough, I noticed the highlighter button that reveals the other editing tools only an hour ago while prepping some documents for a banking thing. I didn’t click it then, but confirmed now all the tools that are accessible in QL. Good stuff.
