Flip Horizontally/Vertically button

Is there any plan to introduce a button (or shortcut) to flip structures horizontally/vertically? So far, to do that we have to click button right > transformation> flip hor/ver. I think this feature would be very welcome to Marvin users.

 

Thanks in advance!

Dear renfre,

We do not plan to place a button for flip operations in the default user interface of MarvinSketch, but the user interface is highly configurable.

Following these steps you can add buttons for flip operations on one of the toolbars:

1. Open "View" menu on the menubar
2. Select "Editor style" > "Customize..."
3. In the appearing window select the "Toolbars" tab
4. Select a Toolbar from the dropdown list in the "Toolbar" section which you want to place the buttons on (or you can create a new toolbar)
5.  In the "Toolbar contents" section click on the "Add" button
6. In the appearing window  select "Edit" from the "Categories" and after that select "Flip horizontally" from "Commands" and click on the "Add" button
7. Select  "Flip verically" from "Commands" and click on the "Add" button
8. Click on the "Close" button
9. Click on the "OK" button
10. If you created a new toolbar, or the toolbar you created in step 4 in not visible, enable it from "View" > "Toolbars"

Regards,
István 

Hi,

Just a quick comment. You can also add to this option into the contextual menu as well, choosing "popups" on Customize dialog.

Best regards,

Efi

Thanks István, it worked pretty well.
