'Active map' menu

Hi Everyone,

For the next release I have re-sorted the menu to provide a new top-level menu called 'Active map'. This menu contains options that apply specifically to the current map layer displayed in the main window, including editing with brush tools, resizing, rotating, mirroring, various mosaic operations, and exporting, as shown below:

Rotating the active map
CW = clock-wise
CCW = counter clock-wise

Mirroring the active map

Mosaic operations for the active map

These options were previously scattered across the 'File', 'Operations→Active map', 'Mouse tools' and 'Extensions→atRotate' menus, which may have made them difficult to find for new users, and even hard to recall for experienced users. I believe these changes will correct those problems.

This menu has been included in the latest developmental build (v2.7 build 12), which is on the downloads page now. Please let me know if you find any problems.

Best regards, Aaron.
