stack rotate

[Tony Shepherd]

Hi,
Is there a smart way to rotate a whole stack through 90 degrees (i.e.
transpose, so no interpolation necessary)

I have found the method rotateRight() for ImageProcessor objects, so I could
go through slice-by-slice and make a new ip object from each slice to build
up a new stack, but I'd rather not make a completely separate object in this
way (I'd have to somehow kill the stack that is on screen and display the
new one in its place)

Is there a better way?

Use the Image>Rotate>Rotate 90 Degrees Right or Image>Rotate>Rotate 90
Degrees Left commands. In a plugin, use

     IJ.run("Rotate 90 Degrees Right");

or

     IJ.run("Rotate 90 Degrees Left");
