Hi,
How could I copy the yellow faces of the dumb solid and paste them to Point.2
Or, how could I create a mirror of the yellow faces, using the Plane.1?
Of course, I could create a Revolve, but I am interested to know if Faces could be copied and pasted in Catia.

NX has tools (Synchronous Modeling) that copy faces and paste them.
Is there something similar in Catia?

Thanks

My experience in GSD is very limited. I assumed that in order to copy faces I needed to extract those faces using "Multiple Extract". It was a good choice.
Is there another way to copy faces, other than using "Multiple Extract" ?

Thanks!

For some reasons the Catia CATPart I placed on my post can't be loaded.
I am placing a picture instead.
I hope it'll answer, Ferdo.

Well, extract yellow faces, join them into one, create a close surface (GSD), I suppose you can switch after that to Part Design and create a solid from that closed surface and mirror that solid.
Alternatively, you can also mirror the join surface, there are commands available in GSD.
