To produce a Mirror Image in the Main Menu select Operations - > Transformation - > Mirror Image
This operation creates a symmetrical copy of an Object, which can be mirrored in three different ways.
Create a copy checkbox allows to keep the initial object, otherwise it will be removed.
The Result will be a GEOM_Object.
Firstly an Object can be mirrored through a Point of symmetry
TUI Command: geompy.MakeMirrorByPoint(Object, Point)
Arguments: Name + one or several objects + 1 vertex.
Advanced option: Set presentation parameters and subshapes from arguments.
The initial shape and the mirror point
The resulting shape (grey)
Secondly an Object can be mirrored through an Axis of symmetry
TUI Command: geompy.MakeMirrorByAxis(Object, Axis)
Arguments: Name + one or several objects + 1 vector.
Advanced option: Set presentation parameters and subshapes from arguments.
The initial shape and the mirror edge
The resulting shape (grey)
Finally an Object can be mirrored through a Plane of symmetry
TUI Command: geompy.MakeMirrorByPlane(Shape, Plane)
Arguments: Name + one or several objects + 1 plane
Advanced option: Set presentation parameters and subshapes from arguments.
The initial shape and the mirror plane
The resulting shape (grey)
Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of the use of Transformation Operations.
