How to Rotate Rotate Right/Clockwise?

When I view a specific photo, I can use the 3-dot menu and select "Rotate" to counter-clockwise rotate an image. But I need/want to rotate it clockwise. I have tried Ctrl-click and Shift-click and it still counter-clockwise rotates the image. I have tied right-click with no effect. Is there a way to rotate an image clockwise (to the right)? It seems to not be considerate of real user situations.

Also, I can multi-select and delete photos. It would be good when viewing a folder of photos to be able to multi-select and rotate images (doing them all at once instead of one-at-a-time). Maybe it needs to be an official suggestion somewhere.

P.S. I know I can do this via the desktop, but why jump back and forth.
 
Rotate x3, which isn't very elegant.

Looking at my iPhone, and being right handed, the natural portrait to landscape way to turn the phone is anti-clockwise: then the camera lens is still on the top edge of the phone, but really it's about the wrist rotates and what's comfortable. The same goes for my camera. But holding the phone in my left hand the natural rotation is clockwise. Seems that Synology needs a usability designer to understand how different people need different features.

Looking back through my photos and the orientation that's shown in Synology Photos is the same as the camera/phone when the image was taken.
