#Choose {{KEY| Sketch}} {{KEY| Sketcher tools}} {{KEY|[[Image:Sketcher_Symmetry.png|32px]] Symmetry}} from the top menu.
#Chosen element will be copied symetrical to the chosen second element.
No extra symmetry constraint will be added.

Description

The Sketcher Symmetry creates mirrored copies of selected elements.

Usage

  1. Select one or more edges and/or Point objects. Constraints restricted to the selected elements are also processed.
  2. Select a line or a sketch axis to define the symmetry line, or a point to define the symmetry point.
  3. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
    • Press the Symmetry button.
    • Select the Sketch → Sketcher tools → Symmetry option from the menu.
    • The keyboard shortcut: Z then S.
  4. Mirrored copies are created.

Notes

  • The tool does not add symmetry constraints between the original elements and the created copies.
