I can't find anywhere how to create a shortcut for "FLIP HORIZONTALLY"

 

I do camera scanning for my film negatives which need to be flipped horizontally. I wish there was a shortcut so i can sync this setting from one to dozens of images at a time.

"I wish there was a shortcut so i can sync this setting from one to dozens of images at a time."

 

As pointed out by Per, you can use the plugin to assign a shortcut to Flip Horizontal. But that doesn't address the rest of your implied question, which is how to sync a flip to dozens of images at the same time.

 

To sync that change, you don't need a shortcut. Rather, do this:

 

1. Go to Develop.

 

2. Do Settings > Enable Auto Sync.

 

3. In the filmstrip, select all the photos you want to flip.

 

4. Do Photo > Flip Horizontal.

 

5. Do Settings > Enable Auto Sync to turn it off (VERY IMPORTANT).

The Any Shortcut plugin by @johnrellis  will let you assign a keyboard shortcut to this command.
