Flipping sprites

Flipping a sprite creates a horizontally or vertically inverted image of the original sprite.

To flip a sprite:

1 | Select a sprite.
2 | Do any of the following:
| Click the Flip Vertical or Flip Horizontal button on the Sprite tab of the Property Inspector to flip the sprite without moving the registration point or changing the current skew or rotation angles.
| Choose Modify > Transform > Flip Horizontal in Place or Flip Vertical in Place to flip the sprite so that its bounding rectangle stays in place and the registration point is moved, if necessary.
| Choose Modify > Transform > Mirror Horizontal or Mirror Vertical to flip the sprite without moving the registration point, but inverting the skew and rotation angles.
