Flipping Polygons

Hey there.
I'm currently working on a 2d mapping setup for a future gig involving two mirrored sphinxes. I'll be projecting through a single output onto two wooden cutouts.
I've gotten about halfway through mapping the design with over a hundred polygons, and attempted to duplicate and mirror them in the advanced output, however I've run into issues dragging and flipping the design.
Is there an easy solution for this?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks,
Thats exactly what I did to achieve the result I originally posted.
I'm trying to flip all polygons in relation to each other, to create a mirrored image of the original.

Interesting, it worked fine for me in 7.5
Which Resolume version are you using?
Could you share the advanced output preset you use?
Thanks!

I'll be honest, I am still using resolume 6, however that doesn't seem to be the issue.
Even in the example that you posted it doesn't seem to be achieving what I'm trying to do. I'll upload a simplified image of an advanced output I've flipped manually to try and show what I'm hoping to achieve with the original image of the sphinx.
What is happening:

Is this simply the way the advanced output is designed?
Thanks

We won't be able to do anything about this in v6.
Hmm, I think I see now what you mean.
It's indeed a bit weird that the polygons keep their relative positions.
We'll se what we can do.

No Problem!
I guess I was hoping it was a feature that I didn't know about, like holding the shift key while dragging and dropping or something. No bother.
Thanks anyway!
