Hi all,  
I’ve been knocking out cleanups all day and my fried brain can’t remember the expression you have to use to invert the scale on a plate you’ve stabilized in order to do fixes. It’s on the tip of my brain but I can’t seem to get it. Anybody out in Logikland happen to know it off the top of their head?

Thank you in advance!  
Michael

You may want to take a look at this. It has all of the stabilizing and inverting functions built into a single batch. [RepoMasterDemo on Vimeo](https://vimeo.com/356040485)

You might want to take a look at the Invert button right next to the axis. I use it 20 times a day.

Thanks Sam but that didn’t invert scale properly on a stabilized image using 2d transform. It will work in Action via the Planar Tracker for some reason.
