Flip Layer Tool
What it Does
Reverses the orientation of all elements within a selected layer across either the X-axis (horizontal) or Y-axis (vertical), maintaining their spatial relationships while changing their directional orientation. The flip operation transforms elements in place without changing their overall position, making it ideal for quick orientation changes without layout disruption.
info
Unlike mirroring, the flip operation modifies the existing layer in place. All elements within the layer will be reversed across the selected axis using the chosen reference point.
