Symbol Editor - rotate when placing a new pin doesn't refresh screen until mouse movement

[Art]

If I place a new pin and try to rotate it (using keyboard shortcut) while placing, I get unexpected and seemingly random delays in the rotate operation. However, if I place the pin and then try to move it and rotate while moving I get no delays at all.

Looks like the screen is not refreshed until the mouse is moved, is this what you see?

Yes. I didn't correlate mouse movements with the rotation of the pin. That's exactly what it is. It is weird though that it doesn't happen when you try to move an existing pin
