To flip an object or group, right-click on it and select either Flip > Vertically or Flip > Horizontally. The object will be flipped around an imaginary axis (horizontal and vertical respectively) passing through the center of the object, or group. If these two commands are used often it may be advisable to add them to the Drawing toolbar.
