I am getting used the my new RRtrack program, but for the life of me I cannot figure out, or read how to flip my track plan.
how is this done?

I couldn't figure that one out either and I've been using it for a few years. Finally just made a new layer and rebuilt it reversed.
Anybody else?

highlight the section of track you want to flip, (hold the shift key and click each piece of track until it is all highlighted).
Right click the highlighted section and select copy.
move the cursor to a blank section of the scree then right and select paste.
right click the copied section, and select rotate. move the slide bar until it is facing the direction you want. then click done.
you can not move the copied section to match up with the original.
highlight the track you want to flip.
click rotate and then slide the rotate feature.
this should rotate/flip it around to where ou want it.
Actually.....flip or mirror do not appear to be commands within RR Track. I tried every trick I know from other illustration programs....and none worked in any way in RR Track.
Thanks for the replies on this. I had already redrawn the parts of the layout in a 'mirrored' look as it was.
That would be a very useful upgrade when a new version is created...

Flipping (Mirror) is different from Rotating as provided in the replies. I have not found out how to do this either.
In theory, it matters when you have turnouts. I suspect that is why that operation is not allowed. If you have an O-72 RH turn out, flipping it would now make it an O-72 LH turn out, which is a different piece of track.
