The extension that flips everything!
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Flip/rotate the current page (just click the button) or apply the transformations to single html elements via context menu.

The blue 'f' icon in the extension's button represents the current orientation of the page, while the red 'f' reflects the future state of the page, i.e. the orientation it will have when the button is clicked.

You can change the default "whole page" transformations in the options page (right-click on the button and select Options).

Options include:
- autoFlip: automatically transform every new opened page
- flipX: flip the page horizontally
- flipY: flip the page vertically
- rotate: set the rotation angle
- animate: animate the transformation
- contextMenu: enable the 'Flip this' context menu
- highlight: highlight right-clicked html element (press and hold)
- whitelist URL pattern: enable the extension only on URLs that match this regex pattern (e.g.: use 'google' to enable the extension only on URLs that contain the word 'google' in them)

Made this extension just for fun and to experiment with css and the chrome api (and to trick some of my friends using autoFlip, an appropriate URL pattern and hiding the button:).
See my other (_useful_) extension at https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/bnahceedpdkaiojgdpddkkdkmjkabfgb

Transformations cannot be applied to all elements, some of them seem to be immune (like many anchor tags or spans), but they should work fine on all divs, images, paragraphs, etc... FALSE! Now (v2.15) you can flip nearly everything!

-- NB: The extension will work only on new tabs (and by the way NOT in the Extension Gallery), so please refresh your tabs or open new ones in order for the extension to operate properly --

Also, don't worry, the extension doesn't collect any personal data, but the permission is required for the script to run on all pages.

Change log:
v0.2
- new highlight (outline) feature
- works with spans and anchors
- modified context menu (less clicks)
- injected in all frames

Thank you, it's perfect. Can I suggest you making an reading extension/app that will make any text divided in sections (like 3-5 sentences), each of which will have different orientation. I use your extension for spicing up my morning reading, to make my brain more flexible. If extension did this in more convenient way it would be nice. Like you choose options "50 percent of text normal, 10 percent upside down, 10 flipped horizontally..." and so on. You can market it as neuroplasticity enchancer and speed reading aid. Also options like scrambled words, some letters switched to slightly similar looking emojis would be nice. And maybe synesthezia training option, when you jcassionally switch particular letter with coloured squares untill the brain gets used to them and then recognizes the coloured squares as letters already.

Needs an option to scroll sideways when rotating a page 90 or -90 degrees, otherwise the page/image gets cut off. Also needs to be able rotate images in image URLs (i.e. img.jpg). I will update my rating if/when both issues are fixed (or at least one of them).

Works great. I use this to read comics and manga on my laptop. I can just flip the pages 90 degrees and read the pages more easily. Thank you :)

It does flip elements, but if you highlight something and right click it, it deselects the text. Right clicking also causes a blue dotted outline and it can mess up a webpage. This hasn't been updated since 2012 and I doubt the issue is going to be fixed. If anyone knows of a better extension, post it here please

it works however as mentioned in another comment it causes problems with right clicking forming a blue dotted box around selection causing you to have to select text twice (at a minimum) with right click then choosing copy. For those that copy & paste a lot this will drive you insane. Apparently this extension has been last updated in 2012 so would assume it has been abandoned unless the developer hasn't been notified of any problems to correct. This would be great if the dev could fix this issue asap. Would re-review and rate accordingly provided an updated version.

At first I thought it didn't work, but the tab I needed it for didn't allow it. I'll use another extension.

Took a little setting up to work as expected, but otherwise did exactly what I wanted. I rarely encounter videos that require this, but now I have the tool for the job.
