P: View > Flip Horizontal is broken in newer versions of Photoshop

Hmm, thanks for the prompt reply Jeffrey. After thinking about it, I can understand why the change was made.  However, sometimes what's fixed for one person is broken for another.

I work as a digital artist and 99 percent of the time I have a reference board (using the app PureRef) covering a section of the top left side of my Photoshop window while I draw and paint on the right side (very common setup for artists, maybe less so for retouchers). That means that my working canvas is usually just to the right of center in my Photoshop window.

The result is that when I zoom out a little and flip the canvas, my canvas jumps to the other side of the screen, becoming partially or wholly obscured under my reference board. It's incredibly frusrating and unusable for me. 

As with other prolematic changes that prompted the inclusion of  "legacy Save As" and "legacy transform", I wish very much that there could be an option for "Legacy Flip Horizontal", but I suspect that's pretty unlikely. I guess maybe 22.4.3 might be the last version of Photoshop I use, which is extra frustrating because it contains a number of other problematic bugs.

Hi @brettn75576555 

I found an internal ticket where this was done intentionally because retrouchers complained in older versions, the content they were viewing would go out of view when zoomed in and retouching.

Current version behavior:  https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/199cfd46-8cfb-4575-49af-72b7fbcbbe15 Note the Captain America cup stays in the view when flipping

Older version behavior: https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/e69c6785-7ca6-41fd-41a2-799b06d89d0a Note the Captain America cup goes away from the view when flipping

Let me know if you're seeing something differet. A video of what you're seeing might be helpful.
