Marilynx Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Just wondering if it is possible to select a part of an image and then flip it, either horizontally or vertically, on the same layer? I've been copying the item I want to flip to a temporary layer, then flipping the layer, re-selecting the item and copying it back to my original layer, and then deleting the temporary layer. Is there an easier way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Install my plugin pack. It comes with a flip plugin. 1 Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I have your plug-in pack because I use "bevel selection" all the time. Where would I look for "flip selection"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two items directly in the Effects menu: - Flip Horizantal - Flip Vertical Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.

Many times, I just want to flip a single piece of an image. Right now I am using the method I described above: I select the item, copy it to a temporary layer, then use either Flip Horizontal or Flip Vertical to get the orientation I want, then copy it back to the original layer and erase my temporary layer.

Unless something has changed, it still flips the whole layer, even with active selection. (Verifying). Yup, even with an active selection, it flips the whole layer.

You must be using the ones in the Layers menu; rather than the ones in the Effects menu. 1 Quote (September 25th, 2023) Sorry about any broken images in my posts. I am aware of the issue.

Yes, I was. Which was why I asked where Boltbait's version was. I do note that you can't use selecting only the item and then flip it. You have to have an area around the item selected, also.
