Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in
Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in
(OP)
Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in the Front Plane, I can do it easily for the Top and Right plane but not for the Front Plane (nothing comes out)
I wish I new how to post Bitmaps and JPG in this forum.

Why is this?
RE: Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in
1) Is this a 2D or 3D sweep?
2) When you cannot mirror using the Front plane, which plane is the sweep path drawn on?
3) How is the sweep profile oriented to the path and front plane?

Here is the simple drawing:

I will like to know what is wrong with it!

What is the purpose of Plane1?
What happens if you select the body instead of the feature and de-select the Merge option?
If you can, post the file for review. See FAQ559-1177 for details.

Can you mirror that drawing in the other two planes?

“You cannot mirror a feature or body if the sweep path is drawn on the plane you are using as the mirror ... unless the sweep profile is non-symmetrical.”
Then which options do we have if we need to mirror Flores drawings in the right plane?
RE: Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in
drawingmodel is created symetrically about the Right Plane, why would you want to? It would just create an identical body within itself.RE: Does anyone knows why I cannot mirror a Swept Boss/Base in
That may help show what is happening.
A bug is when something should happen but doesn't, or when something shouldn't happen but does.
I agree the "invisible" feature mirror is confusing and should not be shown in the FM tree. So I guess that the invisible feature could be seen as a bug, even though SW is just doing what it is told to do.

The file has 3 configurations, one for each plane used for mirroring. Again, you will see that 2 planes will let you mirror, and the other doesn't.
On a part this simple, it would be best to draw the complete path in a sketch instead of drawing half and mirroring it.

Now change the profile to a rectangle and position it below the Top Plane.
