Sheet Metal - Flange Mirroring Please

Anyone succeded in Mirroring a flange in Sheet Metal?
I can mirror Cuts, Dimples, even Tabs, but - I still have to re-create a flange from scratch.

Could we simply add the power to mirror flanges?

Let's say I want to model everything from one side of a plane, and then mirror to the other half. If I edit the first half the mirrored side will reflect it. If the other side is manually created - I have to edit it again to match the first side.

Mirroring flanges would be nice, there is no doubt about it. What I would really like, for sheetmetal or regular parts, is "mirror geometry", a feature that simply mirrors every feature before it across a plane.

I know, it's a very small difference, and I'm probably just being picky. :wink: What counts is that mirroring flanges would be great, and save me a lot of hassle.

Mirroring Flanges - most everybody wants it!

so - nobody doesn't want it out of 16 votes!

This is an old thread - I thought - I would freshen it up!

Anybody else care to vote and tell us who wants to be able to have the ability to mirror flanges in the next (v9) release of AD - (or Sheet metal 2.0) See my flash movies section on the web for a video about this topic! Robert
