Mirror Image paste

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I think being able to create a mirror image of a copied section would be a handy tool.  I do a lot of fades from one side of the display and then back again.   Left to right then back left.  Or bottom to top and back down again.  It would just speed up some of sequencing.

Never mind...that wont work.....   At least not for that

It would work for stair stepping creating like leaping aches.

	I still like the idea. I do a bunch of 100% intensity chases that an inverted paste would be good for. It could be added to the Selection tool under the paste option.

	The copy/paste mechanism is on the table for upgrade in 2009. We're looking at making it more friendly for RGB and things like this. For example, with RGB it is desireable to copy a section in one foreground/background color pair and paste it to another spot in different colors (e.g. color transitions). A mechanism that could handle this would theoretically also handle inversions.

	I'd rather have a REVERSE button, like X in Photoshop where it swaps foreground and background. It's be race to flip ramps, but of cuorse y'all just say "press 2" for the history.
	Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights. D-Light users Unite!
