Mirror Components PropertyManager Step 2: Set Orientation

To display this page (Step 2: Set Orientation) of the Mirror Components PropertyManager:

Select a mirror plane and components in Step 1: Selections and click Next .

Orient Components

Lists the parts and subassemblies you selected in Step 1: Selections. You can expand subassemblies to see their components.

	Reorient components	Adds new instances of existing components, and cycles through four possible orientations. Select an item in the component list and click Reorient and until the component is oriented correctly. This option is most useful for symmetrical components.
	Mirror Type	Determines the rotation of axis. Select one of the following: Center of mass Positions the mirror so that the center of mass of the selected components is mirrored about the mirror plane. Bounding box center Positions the mirror so that the center of a bounding box for the selected components is mirrored about the mirror plane. This option is typically used for asymmetric components. It encompasses the mirrored component in a bounding box and calculates its orientation to the bounding box center.
	Create opposite hand version	Creates new components that are mirror-images of existing components. Select an item in the component list and click Create opposite hand version . The icon appears beside the item to indicate that you are creating an opposite-hand version of it. Use this option to create a true mirror of nonsymmetrical components.
	Synchronize movement of flexible subassembly components	Synchronizes the movement of the components of the mirrored instance with the components of the seed flexible subassembly. When you move components in the seed flexible subassembly, components in the mirrored instance also move, and vice versa.
	Isolate selected component	Hides all the mirrored components except the mirror of the selected component, so you can more easily examine its orientation.

If you have designated to create opposite-hand versions, click Next to go to Step 3: Opposite Hand. Otherwise, click to close the PropertyManager and create the copies.
