An integer indicating the type of flipping to be performed. If
type = 0 (the default), the image is flipped around its x-axis; if
type = 1 (or any positive value, then it is flipped around its y-axis;
finally, if type = -1 (or any negative value, then it is flipped
around both axes.)
target
The location where the results should be stored. It can take 3
values:
"new":a new Image object is created and the results
are stored inside (the default).
"self":the results are stored back into image (faster but
destructive).
An Image object:the results are stored in another
existing Image object. This is fast and will not replace the
content of image but will replace that of target. Note that
if target does not have the same dimensions, number of channels, and
bit depth as image, nothing will be stored.
in_place
Deprecated. Use target instead.
Value
If target="new", the function returns an Image
object. If target="self", the function returns nothing and modifies
image in place. If target is an Image object,
the function returns nothing and modifies that Image object in
place.
