(Sketch toolbar).
You can mirror 2D sketches or 3D sketches on sketch planes.
You can mirror sketches about any these entities:
- Centerlines
- Lines
- Linear model edges
- Linear edges on drawings
To mirror about a linear drawing edge, the sketch entities to mirror must lie within the boundary of the drawing.
As you sketch the entities, they are mirrored about the pre-selected sketch entity. Restrictions to
Dynamic Mirror Entities include:
- Pre-existing sketch entities cannot be mirrored.
- Both the original and the mirrored sketch entities are included in the final result.
