I want to copy a tile. So I press C and V to paste it.

There's just one problem.

I actually want to copy a horizontal reflection of a tile. So I press H to flip it, and C and V to paste it.

It doesn't work. :cry:

How do I do it? 😞

First of all, why use the keyyboard to copy things? it's easier to just right click. Second, why don't you just use paint and flip it there? Then save it, go into it in ZQuest and then press S until you can move it all around by clicking and holding thew square. Move it over the thing you want and then bammo you have it. It only takes a minute and after just delete the file that you had the tiny image on. 😃

Press after you press h to flip it press n.

OK, thanks VEL. I'll use Dark_Xero's method for more complicated transformations, such as shifting the entire 16x16 in a direction a pixel or two.

Boy have I wasted alot of time drawing it manually.

Shifting it a pixel or two is easy. Just click edit on the tile and hit the l, r, u, d arrow keys.

No problem. I found that completely by accident, but it comes in real handy.
