Create modes for the command once started, but before clicking or executing with a key-binding -- mode 1 "I feel lucky" --> flip with encoded "intelligence magic" mode 2 "cursor is a thin line in X only, --> flip vertically mode 3 "cursor is a thin line in Y only. --> flip horizontally pcb-menu.res file has default settable as mode 1, 2, or 3. > So PCB users, let me know how you think "mirror to other side" should > work!
