Mirror Orientation
Mirror Orientation
Toggling the mirror orientation option flips normal direction (blue
arrow) of the triad on an individual face.
In the figure, when Mirror Orientation
option is cleared, positive ply angle is defined in the counter-clockwise
direction (with arrows forming a right hand triad). Arrows at the center
of face are zoomed in and shown separately. The ply angle for the face
is 60 degrees.
See Ply Angle for a description
of the composite triad.

In the figure below, when Mirror Orientation
option is selected, the direction of blue arrow is flipped. Positive ply
angle is defined in clockwise direction. As a result a ply angle of 60
degrees now corresponds to a ply angle of -60 degrees before mirror orientation.
