Flipping objects

If we look at the thumbnail sketch for our slide, we see that we need to create another set of graphics similar to the ones we just created – but the curved arrow points down instead of up.

We could create another set of arrows from scratch, but it will be faster if we make a copy of the graphics we just created and flip them so they point down instead of up.

To make our new graphic, we'll select and copy the group we just made. Then we'll paste a copy into the slide.

We'll move it into position, then use the flip command change the object so it points downward.
The flip command offers two choices vertically or horizontally. We want to flip the item vertically.

There are still a few graphics that need to be added to the slide, we'll just drag and drop them from the gallery.

After we resize and position them the slide will look like this.
