Real-Time Symmetry/One-Time-Click Mirror

Many pixel-art character sprites are symmetrical. A real-time drawing symmetry or one-time click to mirror image is a useful function and will speed up workflow drastically considering one wouldn't have to copy/flip/move every certain number of edits(or try to make edits symmetrically manually)). Thanks, PyxelEdit is awesome. I use it rather than Photoshop because of the real-time animation function and tile based system.

Hi roman

It is already possible to draw symmetry in realtime using tiles. Take a look at the gif I made in this thread:

arbitrary symmetry would be nice however.

I would love if I worked like asprite; where you can move the mirror off center. This feature is my main concern atm, the 'solution' as is is really cumbersome and seems hack'ish.

The other crucial thing not present in the workaround is the ability to easily toggle mirroring on and off. Sometimes you want to draw asymmetric details here and there.

Made an account to pipe in.

Please add this!
