Inventor 2015 Feature to Part or separate solid

[DaveGadgeteer]

I have a complicated part that has an extrusion as an end cap, and I want the mirror image of it on the other end.

I managed to use rectangular array to make a second copy on the other end, but couldn't mirror it.

So I thought to make the feature into a separate solid, or a separate part.

But things have changed in 2015, and I can't manage to get the extrusion made into anything of the sort.

Can someone tell me what tools are needed for this and where to look for them?

Can you attach the file here.

I am not aware of any changes to 2015 that would be relevant to the problem as I understand it.

So I think I might be missing something.

[DaveGadgeteer]

The end plate defined by the last Extrusion is what I'd like to make a separate solid, or perhaps a separate part, so that I can apply a copy of it at the opposite end as well, identical except mirrored. Linear array will get me identical but not mirrored.

I can't seem to find tools that will let me turn the Extrusion into a separate object that I can use that way.

New Solid

For the second part of your question it is unclear to me whether you want Mirror or Circular Pattern of the body.

Note the subtle difference in results.

Wow, I was looking in completely wrong places. Now it seems so obvious--Duh!

And it never occurred to me to try a circular pattern to make one copy, but in fact that's exactly the result I was looking for!

Thank you!
