Utility to horizontally flip windows?

*must work in windows 2k*

OK all you guys who know where all the cool utilities are. I need your help. I've got a REALLY cool project I'm working on at work, but I need to do the following. I've got to flip windows horizontally, so that I end up with a "mirror image" of the screen. It can't just be a screen capture, though. It's got to be real time. In other words, all the text is backwords, the backgrounds are backwords, the mouse moves backwords, all menus are backwords... Everything! I'll show you the finished project when I'm done, and any of you who have ever done studio recording will drool over it. I have a limited budget, but I could probably spend up to $150.00 on the project.

Have you seen anything like this? Maybe as an april fools joke, or something?

Well...the first thing I'd do is take a look on PSC (www.planetsourcecode.com) for free source code, and if not...I'd try to find a way to work around it :sweat: Sorry, my resources are kinda limited.

depending on the video card, ati and nvidia both have options in their drivers that allow the screen to be flipped any way you want

Actually, that was one of the first things I looked into. From what I was able to see, it looks like they let you rotate, but not acutally invert. If this is not the case, I'd be really interested in hearing more, though!

yep your right, it only allows rotation
