In guitar tab, pressing the "L" key changes the tab number to 10 and does not flip the stem.

Is there a shortcut I'm missing in order to reverse the stem in tab?

There are several ways to flip stems in TAB.

In order to give you the best possible help we need more info from you.

Why do you need to flip the stem?
Could you attach a graphic showing the layout you need?

Nightflight,

I don't know guitar TAB very well. This is what I get. Is it what you see, as well?If so, what would you want to change?
