Flipping MovieClips with Actionscript

You can use _xscale and _yscale to flip vertically and horizontally if you use a negative value.

If you set the _xscale value for a MovieClip to -100 it will flip the movieClip horizontally.

<name_of_movieClip>._xscale = -100;

Then using _yscale flips the moiveClip vertically.

If you are using AS3 use the following respectively.

<name_of_movieClip>.scaleX = -1;
<name_of_movieClip>.scaleY = -1;
