How to mirror 3/4 view character?

Hey there, silly question I'm sure, but I have a puppet in a 3/4 view that faces to the left. How do I mirror/flip the puppet so everything faces to the right? 

 

Do I have to do a whole new puppet? 

 

Thanks for any help!

    Not silly.

    You don't have to do a whole new puppet. 

    If it was born in Illustrator, it's super easy. Select the items that need to be "mirrored" and choose Object > Transform > Reflect and click COPY instead of OK. then go back into Character Animator where your new body parts should appear and you can just rig those for 3/4 or side view in the opposite direction.

    If you want things like Walk Behaviors to work, then yes. If you just want it flipped in a scene, try using the Transform behavior and set ScaleX to -100% (negative 100%). It will be like in a mirror.
