Mirror View Horizontally

[Wishdream]

I think it's important for the artist to be able to mirror the entire view non-destructively.

It allows to quickly swap between a mirrored view and a non-mirrored view to check if their perspective is correct and non-slanted. Since it's not written to canvas, the process should not be slow. It also let's the artist export not flipped.

That can already be done! Shift H and Shift V to flip the image horizontally and vertically accordingly. You can also access it from the top menus under image>Flip Horizontal/Flip Vertical

No no no. The keyword is non-destructively. That means it does not apply to the image/canvas but the view instead. It affects the only the view.

Using Krita for example:

On the Layer menu, it only affects one layer:

On the Image menu, it affects the entire image (destructively / modifies the entire image):

On the View menu, it affects only the canvas/view: (non-destructively / does not modify the image at all):
