Hi
Is there a way to model a mesh in symmetry in real time? In Maya there is a command that allows symmetry modelling and thought AutoCAD would have the same feature.
Just to be clear what I am wanting to achieve; I create a box mesh, then select a face on any side and move it 50mm in the direction of its normal and would like the opposite face to also move 50mm in the direction of its normal.
I don't like doing things twice so I modelled only half of the mesh and mirrored it but now I cant union them together so now I have two issues
1. Is there a way to model a mesh in symmetry?
2. Is there a way to union two meshes together?
¡Resuelto! Ir a solución.

Hi,

as you ask... there is NO way.
>> Is there a way to union two meshes together? <<
Union command is not supported for mesh objects and you have to convert it to 3D solids.

Hi @ja1357,
There is Merge face - not quite the same thing as Union but can help in some situations.

I will try creating half the mesh model, convert it to a solid, mirror, union, then convert to mesh. The merge face wouldn't be a suitable option in this case but thanks for your help.
