I am creating a triangle .svg shape in InkScape (same issue with other vector editors).  
Next in InkScape I am rotating triangle 90degrees clockwise and saving that file.  
When I load this file in Processing sketch and displaying it - the image appears rotated not at 90 degrees.  
this is how it is displayed in running sketch:

And this is how this .svg file looks in InkScape:

Processing 3.4  
When .SVG file is imported back into InkScape or other vector editor, rotation is correct.

possibly not all SVG features are available with the SVG shape / vertex loader…  
and why you not try to do the rotation inside processing?  
( after finding the correct rotation center )
