fliping horizonal and vertical

[coldwetnoz]

I just ran into a tut I says to flip the transform horizontal and/or vertical.  This is a new one for me.  I don't see a tool for that.  Can you point it out to me?
Thanks,

Well, if you posted in the forum's category dedicated to whatever software you are using, it would help us know exactly what program you are asking about.

Unless somebody released a program called "Discuss Fractal Forums" - in which case...  Link Please!

Otherwise please let me know what program you are asking about so I can move this to the appropriate section, where it will be more likely to generate a useful answer.

Sorry, I will look more closely at the forum list next time.  It's Apophysis 7.

No problems!

I'll move this to the Apophysis forum now.

Sorry, I never got the hang of Apophysis, so I cannot help with this question.  But I'm sure we have many people here who can and hopefully one of them will see this and reply soon

Yes, there are lots.  What do you use?

My favorites are ones that export 3D obj models for use in 3D software.  There are many now that do that, like Incendia, Xenodream, ChoasPro, and all (or nearly all) of Terry Gintz's suite of programs.  Mandelbulb3D introduced a way to do this recently, and it is great fun.

The closest I ever came to a flame fractal toy is Chaoscope - it makes things with a similar look, but it's the render engine more than anything else giving the similar look.  

I also have Ultra Fractal, but the more I use it, the less I like it.

And, of course, I still keep my old friend Mutatorkammer around  (it's an abandoned project by Christian, our Administrator, but I never found an easier way to fractally distort an image!) (It's available in our Downloads section, but it's not very stable on newer operating systems).

I tried to write my own, just for fun, but quickly found out I'd been away from programming for too long to stand a chance.  When I learned to program, I was punching cards and missed the entire intro of Object Oriented Programming  

So I just play now and leave the programming to those clever young un's out there

My fractals are strictly playing fractals.  I've never even heard of 99 % of those programs. I decided to stick with just one for lack of time so I chose Apophysis because there were more tutorials out there.  I'm lost without a tut to at least start me off. If you have a link to one of the fractals like the type you make, send it own so I can ooh and aah over it!

Thanks for that - I couldn't help with software I never used

I tried as many different programs as I could get to see if any were more suited to my purposes and way of thinking  (both of which are a little  ...  Perverted?)

If you want to see some of my stuff, here's a link to my images : http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=myimages;u=162

Here's the one I like best of the 3D Models  (exported from MB3D and Incendia, then rendered in Carrara) - http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=9736

Like the forum's motto says ; The Possibilities Are Infinite  (or at least, they increase without bounds except those imposed by the allotted time of the existence of the universe and the experimentor).

Your fractals look fantastic!  It really adds to it to see them on such a large scale.    Details!
