Mirroring an assembly

Use the Mirror tool to mirror the root Assembly or any assembly  in the Project Tree. You can either mirror the assembly along any of the three axes, or around its own origin.

To mirror an assembly:

1. In the Project panel, select the root Assembly or the assembly in the Project Tree that you want to mirror. The Assembly panel is displayed below the splitter bar.
2. In the Tools area of the Assembly panel, click the Mirror  button to display the Mirror panel below the splitter bar.
   • The name of the assembly in the Project Tree that you are mirroring is shown in the splitter bar. For example, Mirror - Root Assembly.
3. In the Transform Relative To area, select the origin that you want to use when mirroring the assembly:
   • To mirror the assembly relative to the X=0, Y=0, Z=0 origin, select World Centre. This is selected by default.
   • To mirror the assembly relative to its own origin, select Component Centre.
4. To mirror the assembly from the X to Y plane, select X-YPlane.
5. To mirror the assembly from the Y to Z plane, select Y-ZPlane.
6. To mirror the assembly from the Z to X plane, select Z-XPlane.
7. To keep the original assembly and create the mirrored assembly as a new assembly in the Project Tree, ensure that Copy is selected.
8. Click Apply to mirror the assembly.
9. Click  on the splitter bar to close the Mirror tool settings.
