Issue with Symbol Movement After Flip in Adobe Animate 2023

Dear Adobe team,

I'm a user of Adobe Animate and I've recently encountered an issue that I would like to bring to your attention.

In previous versions of Adobe Animate, such as 2021, when a symbol was flipped, it would still move in the expected direction when using the arrow keys. However, in the 2023 version, I noticed that when a symbol is flipped, the direction of movement is also reversed when using the arrow keys. This change in behavior is causing some difficulties in my work.

I believe this may be a bug, or perhaps an unintended side effect of a new feature. I was wondering if there could be an option to retain the previous behavior, where the direction of movement with the arrow keys does not change after a symbol is flipped.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to any possible solutions to this issue.

    EDAP Tools are great tools. Probably the best bone system for Adobe Animate.
