Hello,

i am trying to flip an object horizontally. I tried the 'themaan.mc scaleX = -1' but it does not seem to work. How can I flip an object horizontally and successfully?

Best,

Cagri Kasap

If what you show is what you wrote, that might be part of the problem.

themaan.mc scaleX = -1;

Without knowing how the object you intend should actually be targeted, here is more what it should look like...

themann.mc.scaleX = -1;

Hello,

no, no, the spelling is not the problem.

it should be: theman.mc.scaleX = -1;

but this is the one that does not work for me. I do not understand!

What is "mc"?

PS - spelling does appear to be a problem, for both of us.  I misspelled it in the correction line.  But you have yet to spell it the same.  The point I was trying to make is that you missed having a period before the scaleX property.
