Mirroring a model in PreForm

Flip a model over the X-axis in PreForm to create a mirror image. When flipping a single model, that model is transformed into a mirror image of itself.

Flip a duplicated model to create a mirror image of that duplicate. When flipping a duplicate, the original model remains, and a flipped version of its duplicate appears.

Note:

Mirroring a model also mirrors the orientation and support structure.
