    Exclamation NO FLIP CANVAS ?! Really?

    Fast "flip" is one of the most important features for every artist to have!
    I will not update from 4.5 to 5 until it will get fixed.



    cheers

    when you "select layer content" in the layer panel, you are presented with a menu giving you the possibility to flip left to right and up and down,in the same menu is the rotate option. Hope this helps?

    Thanks, no. I want FAST keyboard shortcut:

    H: horizontal flip

    V: vertical flip

    You have that in AR5 - H: horizontal flip, V: vertical flip - only stays 'flipped' while holding down the key.

    As mentioned above, H and V will flip the view. To flip the content, select the paint using Transform (there are several ways depending on what you want to select and how you like working), then you can either use the menu options*, or just press H and V as needed and it will flip the active content.


    * (ArtRage 5 has a much better menu with quick flip buttons and the option to set scale and rotation number. You might want to download the demo and play around if the Transform workflow is important to you)

    How does one flip the entire content of the canvas - all layers?

    Hello DarkOwnt,
    Go to Edit > Transform All Layers…
    Once the Transform dialog box is up, hit the H or V keys.

    Thanks markw...

    Does not seem to flip entire content (paint and empty) canvas, just the sub-selection of painted areas.

    Does this mean I need to fill a layer to cover the entire canvas first?

    Sorry DarkOwnt but I’m not sure what you mean there
    Transform All Layers effects all content/layers making up the picture.
    Could you expand a bit perhaps about what’s not working as you expected?

    In the meantime, one more thing…
    I would also say, that if you want a slightly quicker way to flip your painting, and if your tablet preferences will let you, you could set one tablet key to send AR all the commands at once, necessary to flip the whole painting.
    On my Intuos4 tablet I have set an onscreen key that will send the following 3 commands to ArtRage; Shift+cmd+A (Transform All Layers…), H (Flip horizontal), Enter (confirm Flip Horizontal command)

    Note; By default AR dose not have a shortcut set for ‘Transform All Layers…’ so you will need to set one in AR’s ‘Keyboard Shortcuts’ preferences first.
