creation new mirrored part

[ABudano]

Good evening,

I created a part using the generative sheet metal design of catia v5, it is a sheet with different flanges and holes.

This is the right side of a set, I should create the left side that is equal to the right side but with the folds on the opposite side.

is there a way to create the new part, keeping the connection with the first, so that if I change for example a hole (positioning and size), this change will automatically reflect in the new part?

Thank you.
antonio

if you do copy_paste-special body in the new file you have 3 extra options to make your body recognize as sheet metal, and maintain the linkDo some evidence and look at the tree.
in this example the solid of the body.4 has a different icon than usual, but he died
the body.5 has the connection.
Do some evidence and see now.
focus on creating holes in sheet metal environment, not part design.

thanks dalmott, it worked, created the new part, put the parameters of sheet metal, copy of the body part "father", paste special in the new part by selecting "as result with connection".
I had to do the plate recognition by clicking on a surface, then I made the symmetry.
In this way I have the daughter part speculating to the father part, making a change to the father part, automatically reflects on the daughter part.

fantastic

Is the solid icon like the body.5? test the various types of links and see the differences
if so it is not necessary to recognize the sheet

 

[ABudano]

Yes, the icon is the same, but after entering the body, if I try to make the symmetry I give this message

 

[dalmott]

the icon under your body.2 is not equal to mine, with the sheet module you have new ways to paste with connection (try the last of the first picture)

Uh-huh. the only special glue options I have are these
