[Word] Word 007 neat trick - look 'through the back' side of an image

[Ron Solecki]

Hey gang, I tripped over a neat trick in Word 2007, one I hadn't heard of
before.

I was resizing a pasted graphic to a smaller size inside of Word.  I'd
grabbed the resize handle on the upper right corner of the picture and
started dragging it (proportionally) smaller.  I slipped and went too far,
past the left margin of the picture, then my finger slipped off the mouse
button.

Imagine my surprise when I found myself looking "through" the "back" side of
the image.  It had swapped left for right side, so all the text was
reversed.

It's not something you'd use every day, but then again you can say that for
99% of the other features in Word

I'd be interested to hear if it works in older versions too.

PS: the "Word 007" was a slip of the fingers, left it in for a giggle.  I
still hate the ribbon UI)
