Mirroring Groups in PCB

When I select a group of components in my PCB layout and mirror them to the other side of the board, it mirrors each part around its own axis, not the entire group as a whole.  This destroys the spacial relationship between all of the parts and I have to manually reorganize everything.

 

Is there a way to do this or is this how this is intended to operate?

Hello @brandonXNQ6E ,

 

I hope you're doing well. You probably did this mirror operation using the inspector. If you want to maintain the relationship between components the procedure is different.

 

1. Form the selection

2. Click on the MIRROR icon on the top toolbar. This activates the command 

3. Hold ctrl and then right click a member of the selection this will mirror the entire group relative to that point.

 

Try it and let me know if you continue to run into issues.

You are 100% correct, I was doing it through Inspector as all other ways only flip one part.  This worked perfectly, thank you so much!
