Folks,
I'm feeling a little inept here. I am a complete novice to SolidWorks and to CAD in general.
I'm trying to follow the Sheetmetal Tutorial.

In the very beginning of the tutorial, the directions say to create a centerline through the origin, and then create a 'symmetric relationship'.

I've never been able to do that. When I open 'Add Relationship' symmetric is never listed. What do I have to do to get 'symmetric' added to the relationships?

Many thanks!
Greg
 
Select the lines you want to symetrise AND the CENTERLINE.
 
You dont have to open the add relations box first. You can select the lines and or poins you want While in a sketch byholding down control and selceting them. Then the box will pop up in the property manager.Then pick the relation you want and click ok.
