Flyout for Mirroring Elements

These commands are only available in FreeStyle Shape Design.
Soft Mirror, Hide Original
Performs a mirror analysis of geometrical elements around a symmetry plane by hiding the original element.
See Performing a Soft Mirror Analysis.


Visual Symmetry
Visualizes a 3D shape symmetrically in relation to a plane, in a product context.
See Displaying a 3D Shape Symmetrically.


Mirror Analysis
Creates a mirror image of your geometry in any plane defined.
See Producing a Mirror Image Using Mirror Analysis.

Flyout for Manipulating Views
Standard View Manipulation
Resets the default options.
