[Etoys] [Fix] Horizontal and Vertical Flips

[Scott Wallace]

Hi, Subbu,

If the sketch has been rotated, this patch seems to produce incorrect  
results.

For example, given the following sketch, which has been somewhat  
rotated:

-------------- next part --------------

-------------- next part --------------



... then after applying your "flip horizontal" we get:

-------------- next part --------------

-------------- next part --------------




So I think that something more sophisticated than just flipping the  
unrotated bitmap and then applying the same rotation to it, which is  
what your patch does, is called for here.


Cheers,
