Adds a mirrored copy of a sketch or a solid to the shape.
Offset | Specifies the distance to offset the mirrored copy to the original. Only available if a edge or face of the shape is selected as reference. |
Keep Original | If checked, the original shape will be included in the result. Otherwise, the result will only contain the mirrored copy. |
Merge Faces | Only for solid type bodies. |
Reselect Reference | Starts reselection of the mirror plane or the edge/face defining the mirror line/plane. |
If working with a sketch, the modifier will use a reference edge to define the mirror line. If working with a solid, the modifier will use a reference face to define the mirror plane.
Depending on the shape the direction of the offset may be improper. Invert the offset value to correct this.
