Learn to use the flip option to create a perfect mirror image of your canvas.
Sometimes design constraints make it necessary to have the subject face the opposite direction. Rotation is also helpful when working with multiple graphic elements, such as shapes or logos, that need to be oriented around one another.
Produce striking, symmetrical designs by placing a flipped image alongside the original image. Right-click the background layer of your image and select Duplicate Layer. This will create a copy of your image you can then flip.
Select the layer, press CtrlL+T on PC or Command+T on Mac, then right-click and choose Flip Horizontally or Flip Vertically. This will flip only the selected layer.
To flip an entire image — including every layer in the image — follow the instructions below to open and use the Image Rotation menu.
Follow this tutorial to learn how easy it is to flip an entire image in Photoshop.
Also in the Image Rotation menu are options to rotate images 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise, or even turn the entire image upside down by rotating it 180 degrees. To rotate your image to a specific angle, click and drag your image to rotate it to the exact angle you want.
Enlarge or shrink your image to fit any size. Either modify the dimensions of your image or reduce the file size of a particularly large picture. Under the Image menu, use the Image Size dialog box to alter width and height and choose between a variety of units of measurement.
