To Add Features to or Remove Features from a Mirror Feature
This topic describes adding features to or removing features from a Mirror feature when you create a Mirror feature, or when you edit the definition of a Mirror feature.
Creating a Mirror feature
While you create a Mirror feature, you can add and remove features depending on the dependency of the mirror.
Independent or partially dependent Mirror features
Select the Mirror items collector on the References tab.
To add features to the Mirror feature, hold down the CTRL key while you select features in the graphics window or Model Tree.
To remove features from the Mirror feature, select the features to remove in the Mirror items collector, and right-click and choose Remove.
Fully dependent Mirror features
When Dependent copy is already selected on the Options tab, you can’t add features to or remove features from the Mirror feature.
If you change the Mirror feature type to fully dependent, and the Mirror items collector is empty, you can add only one feature to the Mirror items collector.
Editing the definition of a Mirror feature
You can use this procedure when you edit the definition of an independent or partially dependent Mirror feature, but not when you edit the definition of a fully dependent Mirror feature. The procedure can only be used in Part mode.
1. In the Model Tree, select an independent or a partially dependent Mirror feature, and right-click and choose Edit Definition. The Mirror tool opens.
2. Click Reapply Mirror. The Mirror items collector becomes available.
3. Click the References tab, click the Mirror items collector, and then perform the needed actions:
To add features to the Mirror feature, hold down the CTRL key while you select features in the graphics window or Model Tree.
To remove features from the Mirror feature, select the features to remove in the Mirror items collector, and right-click and choose Remove.
4. Click OK.
