#471 – How FlowDirection Works with the Image Element

Unlike other elements, the Image control will not inherit it’s parent’s value of FlowControl.  However, you can explicitly set FlowControl for an Image to RightToLeft, which will flip the image horizontally.

    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <Image Source="Images\BestYears.jpg" Margin="5"/>
        <Image Source="Images\BestYears.jpg" Margin="5" FlowDirection="RightToLeft"/>
    </StackPanel>
