The process is made in 3 different steps. | + | This message will pop up every time you make an action regarding the layer (including trivial actions like zoom or pan), so be sure to [[faq:rotation|convert your images into non-rotated rasters]]. If the rotation is insignificant, you may prefer to simply ignore the message by checking the option **Hide warnings for this layer**. This option prevent the appearance of the message for the current session, but it will pop again the next time you launch your project. |
