<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are a regular\nGoogle Slides user, you may know that you just need to right-click the image\nyou want to rotate, and then choose how you want to rotate it. Unfortunately,\nthis elegant feature is not available in PowerPoint. But of course, you can\nflip a photo in PowerPoint too, but the functionality is just a little more\nhidden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flip a Photo in PowerPoint by Using the \u201cFlip\u201d\nFeature<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This first method of\nhow to flip a photo in PowerPoint, as the title implies, is that we will flip\nthe photo. However, there are two different variants, Flip Vertical and Flip Horizontal.\nYou can read how to do this below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Select the image or photo you want to flip<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

2. Navigate to Picture Format<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

3. Head over to Arrange, and click Rotate<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flip Vertical<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I do not use this\nfeature very often, as you simply turn the image upside down. It can be useful\nif you have any shape, such as an arrow, that you want to flip over. Or if you\nhave taken a photo with your smartphone, which has been turned upside down\nafter importing it to your computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flip Horizontal<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Flip a photo\nhorizontally is something I do all the time in PowerPoint. Sometimes I think\nit’s nice to have pictures with objects on one side as background, and then add\ntext over on the other side. See the image below, and you understand what I\nmean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some reason, I\nalways think it seems best to have the text on the left, don’t ask me why. Of\ncourse, not all photos are arranged in a way that allows the elements to be\nplaced to the left. However, there is no problem – use the Flip Horizontal\nfeature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flip a Photo in PowerPoint by Using the\n\u201cRotate\u201d Feature<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now you have learned\nhow to flip a photo in PowerPoint using the Flip feature. Just as you can flip\nphotos, you can also rotate photos in PowerPoint. The process is basically the\nsame, except that you select Rotate in step 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Select the image or photo you want to flip<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

2. Navigate to Picture Format <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

3. Head over to Arrange, and click Rotate<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

4. Select Rotate Right 90\u00b0<\/strong> or Rotate Left 90\u00b0<\/strong> <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This can also be a\nuseful method if you want to flip photos into PowerPoint, which has been\nmisaligned when importing your photos from your camera or smartphone.\nFurthermore, if you have an arrow or another shape that you want to rotate,\nthis is also an excellent method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
