Use the Mirror Feature PropertyManager to mirror features. In parts, you can mirror faces, features, and bodies. In assemblies, you can mirror assembly features.

Options
|
Geometry Pattern |
Mirrors only the geometry (faces and edges) of the features, rather than solving the whole feature. You must select this option when, in a multibody part, you mirror features of one body onto another body.
The geometry pattern option speeds up the creation and rebuilding of the feature. However, you cannot create geometry patterns of features that have faces merged with the rest of the part.

|
(Available when mirroring surface bodies.) Merges the seed and mirrored surface bodies into one surface body. |
