Confused about mirrored geometry

Recommended Posts

Hi,

We have observed that users sometimes get confused by the mirror functionality which doubles the geometry by scaling the y-coordinate with a factor of -1. This is just for visualization! In most situations, this is not required by non-maritime users. However, for ship hull designers, a symmetric ship hull can be quickly mirrored with this button, just to have a look at the entire ship hull (while modeling only one half of it).

 

I hope this helps,

Joerg

The same applies for the section view or no-section view. We might think of predefined industry specific setups for the GUI. That also applies for the selection off features. Let us collect some ideas.

Cheers
