You can get pretty precise with rotational handle.I do it all the time.
The key is grabbing the handle and moving your cursor far away from the center while holding down the left click.
Here I have the cursor moved to the
far side of the canvas at the bottom.It's highlighted in Red. It turns into a
circled arrow that's hard to see. You can easily arc in very small
increments.

You can also sweep into the UI area. You don’t have to remain
in the Canvas area.I normally edit using 2 monitors. The 32” 2556 x 1440 for the Canvas. The timeline goes on a 23” 1920 x 1080 on the right.
If you look at the bottom of the timeline, you’ll see the rotation cursor way over there. So controls off the charts in that situation.
90 degree rotation points snap into place.
You can do the same in thing in Photoshop. Just in case you didn’t know this.

Actually Fred,
I showed how it works using either 1 monitor or 2. See Image 1and information posted above it.
I showed the 2 monitor setup primarily to show an extreme example. In that particular situation my cursor is about 3’ feet away from the arrow.
In reality, it’s impractical because it only works if the rotation to be applied is to the far right.
I was simply demonstrating that you place/move the cursor/control handle as far outside of the canvas area as you want and still use it.
Although, in that particular 2 monitor set up, I could rotate that arrow in 1/10ths of a degree quite easily.Related Categories
