Reversing the profile view
The Reverse Profile tool flips the default profile view orientation horizontally. Reversing the profile view flips all elements in the profile view, including the runway and tray. If the default orientation of the profile view is not the view you want, this tool reverses the direction in which the profile view is drawn.
