Flip Horizontal Shortcut?

I'm running PSE 2020 with the Elements + plug-in.  Is there a shortcut (or can I develop one) to flip an image horizontally?  I thought adding Elements + would give this functionality but it does not appear to do so.

It works!  The link you posted has a further link at the bottom to a video explaining the mechanics of setting up shortcuts.  The action I wanted (flip horizontally) was in the list of existing actions but there was no Shortcut Key assigned to it.  I assigned a key and the shortcut works.  Many thanks!

From the help file:

https://elementsplus.net/help/en/shortcutsplus.htm

Did you follow the video describing how to assign a shortcut?

I have not tested it myself with 'flip and image horizontally', but that seems possible.

Just curious: why do you need such a shorcut frequently?

AFAIK, there is no keyboard shortcut for flipping an image horizontally.  Nor does Elements provide any support for customized keyboard shortcuts.  I don't know about the Elements + plug-in.
