The Rotate/Skew Mode button on the Selector Tool Infobar controls the operation of the selection handles around the selection. When the button is pressed in, the selection handles are in Rotate/Skew mode and when the button is pulled out selection handles are in scale mode.

If selection handles are not enabled, pressing this button enables them and places them in Rotate/Skew mode.

Clicking on a selected object with the Selector Tool chosen will swap the selection mode between Rotate/Skew mode and Scale mode - this is usually easier than using the Rotate/Skew mode button.
