    Rotating a layer

    engineer 2011 Community Member

      When I rotate a layer by: Edit > Transform > Scale, Rotate, the edges look pixelated on the screen.  I tried rotating the layer as a smart object and get the same results.  My canvas is 10"x10" at 300dpi.  The layer I am rotating is about 3"x3.75" (900x1125pixels.)

       

      Is there a better way to do rotate a layer various angles?  I know that the edges will be somewhat pixelized when rotate, but the edge looks worse than I expected.  I am experienced with using paint shop pro and did not get this result in rotating layers at various angles.
