# Symmetry
2+
3+
To paint symmetrical sprites, you can use the Symmetry options available
4+
from from *View > Symmetry Options* menu. This will show you
5+
the following buttons in the [context bar](context-bar.md):

* ![Horizontal Symmetry Icon](symmetry/horizontal-icon.png) Enables
10+
the Horizontal Symmetry
11+
* ![Vertical Symmetry Icon](symmetry/vertical-icon.png) Enables the
12+
Vertical Symmetry
13+
* ![Symmetry Options Icon](symmetry/options-icon.png) Shows a popup
14+
menu with a *Reset Symmetry to Center* option
15+
16+
When you enable one symmetry axis (e.g. horizontal symmetry/vertical
17+
axis) you can drag-and-drop on-screen handles to configure the
18+
position of the axis:

Then just drawing will paint in both sides of the image:

You can put the axis in the middle of a pixel if you need to:
