flipping an object vertically

[Liquid]

Hey all,
Can someone tell me how to flip an object horizontally or vertically instead of having it rotate clockwise or CCW... thanks

[Jesse]

A neat trick posted a by a user is:

_root.object._xscale = -1;

Cheers

Jesse

Jesse,

Do you have a link for the original post for that expression... I'm not sure if I'm placing it in the wrong parameter because it isn't working.. I'm doing something wrong, but just don't know what it is heh..

That could be because I wront the wrong code (left out the * )

try:

_root.object._xscale *= -1;

Cheers

For flip the object vertically use:

_root.object._scaley*=-100; for as2

object.scaleY*=-1 ; for as3.
