Rotating and flipping images


Rotating an image turns it around its center point, while flipping an image inverts it across its horizontal or vertical axis.

To rotate or flip an entire image:

Choose Image > Rotate, and choose one of the following commands from the submenu:
  • Canvas 90° Left to rotate the image counterclockwise by a quarter-turn.
  • Canvas 90° Right to rotate the image clockwise by a quarter-turn.
  • Canvas 180° to rotate the image by a half-turn.
  • Canvas Custom to rotate the image by the angle you specify. If you choose this option, enter an angle between -359.99 and 359.99 in the angle text box, and then select Right or Left to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. Click OK.
  • Flip Canvas Horizontal to flip the image horizontally.
  • Flip Canvas Vertical to flip the image vertically.
