Mirror

 History enabled

The Mirror command creates a mirror-image copy of objects.

Steps

  1. Select the objects.
  2. Pick the start of the mirror plane.
  3. Pick the end of the mirror plane.
    As you move the cursor, Rhino previews the location for the mirrored objects.
    The two end points specify a mirror plane perpendicular to the construction plane.
    Use object snaps to accurately place the mirror plane, especially if you want to Join a surface and its mirrored copy.
