Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

Currently, you can only flip "all images" with "Flipbook" or your "Stylus".

If you want to flip "instances" only, then you can only use "Next / Previous Instance".

If I understand you well, you want to flip "instances" with "Flipbook" or your "Stylus", right ?
(If so, it is not possible yet)

+1 for this.
Maybe, instead of having "by stylus" fonctions, we could have "by stylus" shortcuts. That means :
ctrl+drag stylus in image area :
maj+drag stylus in image area :
ctrl+drag stylus in layer panel :
maj+drag stylus in layer panel :

And maybe, like i said in the topic i created earlier :
ctrl+drag stylus in instance area :
maj+drag stylus in instance area :

Maybe we'll have to have two shortcuts for right/left. Like the wheel shortcuts (and i think that it lacks the middle clic in the functions, also).

Hooray! Feature added!!

Thank you

Edit: Note for others, because it took me a second to figure this out -- the controls for this feature work with the UP/DOWN axis of the stylus, not left-right. Move stylus down to go backward, up to go forward while holding hotkey.

Yeah! That's good.

I have some suggestions : yet i see the flip is vertical, but the timeline is horizontal. So maybe it's more intuitive to have it horizontal, like the flip button (and you have more space to flip because most of the screens are horizontal).
Another thing i see is that the flip works from the top to te bottom of the image, but when you're zooming really close(when you're cleaning or inbetwinning for exemple) you can't flip more than 3 drawings or so. I think it would be more usefull if we had either the top to the bottom of the workspace, or some fixed value like the button.

But that's a really sweet upgrade anyway

I'd like to request a small improvement to the functionality of this tool -- could the Freehand Flip function be constrained to the timeline's range?
It's particularly troublesome when starting out an animation, where flipping backwards goes far far far past the 0 frame mark into negative values in the timeline -- then, when I let go of the key, I have to wait a while for the playhead to return to 0. Or perhaps this leads to revisiting the question of having negative timeline images at all?
