How to mirror/flip a PCB design in Allegro Free Physical Viewer?

calix2021

I am using the Allegro Free Physical Viewer(17.4-2019 S019 [7/14/2021] Windows SPB 64-bit Edition) and after searching endlessly online can't see to find anything about how to flip or mirror a PCB in the free viewer?

Not sure if its available in the free version or not. There are all sorts of examples online of a "flip" button but they are not for the "free" viewer.

Thanks for any info that anyone can give me..

    The 'flipdesign' command exists, the idiots that developed the new version apparently decided to not add a menu or icon button to utilize it...

    Try switching from allegro_free_viewer to allegro_free_viewer_classic since the classic version looks like the normal allegro tool
