To modify an image using the Flip tool:
1 Drag the Flip tool from the Tools tab to the dependency graph in the
Schematic view. The image will be vertically flipped.
2 Select the desired flip parameters: Vertical, Horizontal, or both.
NOTE The Flip tool's Vertical and Horizontal attributes are both animatable by
setting keyframes or using expressionssee
Setting Keys Manually on page 676
and
Validating and Applying the Expression String on page 729.
Orient Tool
The Orient tool lets you rotate its input by 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees (with
the rotation parameter being an enumeration) and further flip the result
vertically and/or horizontally.
The vertical and horizontal directions refer to the image after the rotation has
been applied.
NOTE When possible, use this tool in lieu of more general transform tools because
no resampling the input image required resulting in no loss of image quality.
