March 2026 (emilk/egui): Expanded shape manipulation capabilities by adding dynamic rotation for rectangles and ellipses, enabling rotation around the shape center or custom pivot points. This enhances UI flexibility for dashboards, editors, and diagram tools. The work mirrors existing rotation support for text, delivering a consistent transform API across shapes. Delivered via commit 5d5f0dedccc7ec170c3cc51c5f7ba0990549c984 for PR #7682. No explicit bug fixes were logged this month; the feature lays groundwork for richer demos and broader adoption of egui's shape tooling. Technologies used include Rust, graphics transforms, and a Git-based PR workflow. Business impact: expands UI design capabilities, enabling more polished, dynamic interfaces and potential to broaden user adoption.
