Mirror line and mirror plane

Anonymous — Sun, 03 Jul 2016 03:11:53 GMT

We can use YZ, XZ and XY plane as a mirror plane. Can we use X, Y and Z axis as a mirror lines?

Because I tried to use it, I couldn’t then I drew line and used that as mirror line.

A work plane has a "defined" other side. A axis doesn't have any defined other side.

A line would be on a sketch, which has a defined other side because the geometry is already on a "plane".

But it is used as a axis to revolve.

Okay I got it for a axis all the sides are defined therefore it can be used as a axis for revolve.
