I am writing a script that can work either on vertical or horizontal objects. I need words/expression that refer to
* left/right when working horizontally, and top/bottom when working vertically (begin and end of the "main" direction)
* top/bottom when working horizontally, and left/right when working vertically (begin and end of the "transverse" direction)
Because if I have a single UI, I can't change this dynamically in the input dialog when the user changes the orientation choice.
An alternative is to have two menu entries, one for each orientation, leading to two dialogs and have each dialog use the relevant usual terms.
€0.01 for you thoughts.
