Transparent LCD reverse image

[Rhubarb Bikini]

Is it possible to reverse the image on a transparent LCD?

The LCD is in the perfect position but everything is backwards on the screen.

Any help? Thanks.

not that I know, front side of LCD is always back side of the block.

Screenshot please.
The only reason one of the default images would be backwards is if you're looking at the LCD from behind it. If you're using custom images and looking at the front of the LCD the image is backwards. Use an image editor to flip the image.

If you have the bottom of the screen's block placed so the screen is standing on something you can mount another transparent LCD to the back of it and display the images on that one so anything on it is displayed correctly from where you want to look at it. I've done that.

All of the screens in this shot standing in the middle of the room are actually 2 LCD screens. One is facing away from the view point and the ones with the text and images on them are mounted to the back of them, facing the direction the shot was taken from.

Thank you very much for your comments.

With my situation there is no option to place a transparent screen in a different location. I have provided a screenshot so that you might understand why...

Just turn the screen around, you have the backside facing you.

If I rotate the screen round it moves to the other side of the placement cube and there is nothing for the screen to attach to.

Please explain how to turn the screen around keeping the screen on the side of the placement cube it is on. Thanks!

Is there some reason why you can't use my suggestion and mount a screen facing the right way on the back of that one? Doesn't look like an image it looks like you're using a script that produces text. Text can't be flipped, you have to get a screen facing the right way. What I suggested in this situation is the only way to do that: mount another screen on the back of that screen and put the script code on / in the screen that's facing the right way.

You really can't tell there's 2 screens there when we do that other than because of the tint in them it makes them slightly darker. I think that's really your only option since it's text being displayed. If it were an image you would have the option of either using my suggestion of 2 screens or flipping the image with an image editor.

I appreciate your suggestions but there simply is not anything to attach an additional screen to.

"Text can't be flipped" on a transparent screen...

Sure there is. Another screen can be attached to the screen that's there.
To make it the same color open the paint menu with the P key and close it so painting is activated, highlight the screen block that's there and press SHIFT+P to copy that exact color.

It doesn't matter what script is used. I used that one because it's what I had handy.

Make the text an image. then use program to flip image. then it will be what you want.

I'd very much like to be able to invert the image on my transparent LCD. They're airtight, and look more or less identical to windows. I want to replace several of the windows on my bridge with transparent LCD's, but there isn't room to put them "inside", and they won't line up with the windows if I arrange them like that.
