Mirror Geometry
Mirror Geometry
(OP)
Is there a way to mirror geometry and make it completely independent of the original so the original objects can be eliminated?
Thanks again for all the help,

RE: Mirror Geometry
But it leads me to this question:
Can you copy geometry (or a group of features)in a way that the new features are independent of the original features so you can then eliminate the originals?
Any way to do that?

Make a new assembly, with no datum planes.
Assemble your first part.
In Assembly Mode, creat a new part and pick Mirror. Enter a new name, and pick COPY option.
Pick the part to mirror, and pick a mirror plane from the same part, NOT from the assembly. This is the trick.
Now make your part, quite the assembly. The new part is independant from the first one.

"The selected entity is external. It cannot be backed up."
I am not able to select the desired original part so I can not complete the mirror process.
Question:
What does it mean that "the selected entity is external"?

And then went by 3dlogix instructions and it all worked fine.
Thanks for all the help (I knew I could count on you).
