Dear Emma,

The problem as it turns out was that I was using Stereoscope to digitize my 
specimens.  Stereoscope digitization differs a bit from geomorph and the 
coordinate organization caused the inflection of the points in geomorph.  
However, Aaron was able to add code to Stereomorph that rotated the coordinates 
properly that allowed me to then analyze in geomorph.  Thanks for your email.

Best,
Christopher Marshall

Subject: [MORPHMET] Re: Horizontally inverted aligned landmark clouds

Dear Christopher,

What comes to mind is the option in geomorph's gpagen() function "PrinAxes". 
When this option is TRUE, the shape coordinates are aligned by their principal 
axes rather than how the configuration was digitized- this is for visualisation 
and isn't changing the shape infomration in any way. Might this be the source 
of your concern?

Dear Group,

I'm digitizing landmarks for geometric morphometics using TPSDig and plotting 
the data from a .TPS file in Geomorph in R.

For a newly digitized dataset the plot of the aligned landmarks of all 
specimens is horizontally inverted

This is not the case for an older dataset also digitized using TPSDig.

This must be a common issue but am unable to resolve.  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
CDM
