(Editing) ROTATE / FLIP / MIRROR

It's not uncommon to want to rotate your images to the right or left etc. Sometimes you may want to FLIP the image from top to bottom. And also you may want to MIRROR the image from left to right.

These are simple rotation examples. In fact you can do these using the tools menu and then selecting the "Rotate / Flip / Mirror Image" menu option. This allows you to do these simple operations. You can also bring up the "Quick Tools" panel and click on the rotation buttons there too.

HINT: If you have the "Rotation Memory" checkbox checked in the "Program Options" window, then the Rotate Left and Rotate Right operations are remembered as long as you are in the program. If you select to Rotate LEFT or Rotate RIGHT, then you do NOT need to save the image. Photo Jockey keeps a memory of the fact that you rotated the image. So as you bounce around looking at different images, when you go back to an image that you had rotated, it will STILL appear rotated. This memory is kept UNTIL you exit Photo Jockey. When you re-load Photo Jockey, it will NOT show the images as rotated.

TIP: You may want to SAVE your changes. If you do, then open the "Quick Tools" panel and click on the Save (floppy disk) button so that when you load the image at a later date, it will look the way you want it.

NOTE: If you need to do more complex rotations to rotate to a particular angle, click here.
