GrobFlip v1.0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> S/SX/G/GX by Robert Tiismus [Note: Rotation of grobs 90 degrees has always been a challenge; Jim Donnelly's Tool Library can do it, but it's very slow. When I ran across DFLIP and VFLIP, I flipped! Used in sequence, they can rotate a grob 90 degrees either direction, almost instantly! -jkh-] Ever want to print a GROB wider than your IR printer can handle? Ever need to make a mirror image or rotation of a grob? Now you can... and VERY FAST. This package consists of two programs: DFLIP Diagonal Flip: flips the GROB on the first stack level over the \ diagonal axis VFLIP Vertical Flip: the same thing but ower the horizontal axis In the both cases you end up with mirror image of the original grob. You can ROTATE a GROB by using them together. Examples: ( By using notation DFLIP = 'D' and VFLIP = 'V' ) DV rotates GROB counterclockwise by 90 degrees VD rotates clockwise by 90 degrees V mirror image using horizontal mirror DVD mirror image for vertical mirror BENCHMARKS: DFLIP acting on 131x64 GROB ~ 0.33 sec VFLIP same conditions ~ 0.25 sec MEMORY: DFLIP needs enough memory to make two copies of the grob VFLIP needs enough memory to make one copy of the grob You can use those programs and distribute freely as long as you are not charging money for it. --------------------- Robert Tiismus robert@info.rk.ee ---------------------
