Configured Design - Create a Left and Right Assembly with Mirror and Configurations

[Christoph_360]

Hello everyone

I've created a Left Assembly and I want to Mirror (not copy) the Base Plate so that I can then use Configured Design to create a Left and Right Assembly.

Unfortunately, I can't find a Mirror command under Modify.

I'm assuming this feature isn't available yet.

What is your opinion on this?

Thanks

Christoph

I think you're looking in the wrong place. Could you look at this path?

One way to create a mirrored body without creating a copy is to use a non uniform scale and scale one axis by -1. You will not be able to enter minus numbers in the dialog while creating the scale feature but you can enter minus numbers in the parameter manager after creating the feature.

Absolutely great, thank you for this extremely important information.

Anyone familiar with the automotive industry knows that many assemblies and CAM parts are available in left-hand and right-hand versions.

Thanks a lot
