sheet mirror

[tanticapelli]

Hello everyone

referring to this discussion https://www.cad3d.it/forum1/threads/comando-specchia-parte.22338/ we know that you can mirror a part creating a new opposite hand file if necessary.

but if I do it with a part a complex sheet with flanges of the edge, extrusions, moves faces, extruded cuts and who more has more to put it, when I open the part (which is physically a file because I selected "Overse hand" and "create a new file") I find that it does not have in the tree all the functions of sheet created in the original part so that, in fact, it is not editable.

Is it a software limit or am I wrong?

I would need to mirror the part and edit a stupid parameter within the mirrored part but the parameter is gone!

Thank you.

in that case you do not have to create a new file, but a configuration in the part.
look at the mirror options.
however the concept is wrong. a speculative part should not be editable, if you do so they should be inserted following the referential, which you do also on a part without feature

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

what I want to say is that mirroring a part in the environment together to get the geometrically specular version, which can also be done by environment part to be precise, the software rightly considers that the new part will always be the specular version of the original. to be precise it will be as long as the connection between the two parts remains unchanged.
the mirror presupposes two objects with the same geometry; If you do a function mirror or body in the environment part you do not claim that you will re-propose all the functions with which the object has been modeled up to that point and if you have to make changes you later make them to the mirror function. in the case of the speculative creation of a part philosophy is the same... and I do not see why it should not be; if you have to make changes you will make them on the imported body (in the case of a new part) or after the functions move/copy in the case of addition of configuration on the original part.
otherwise you make a copy of the part file, rename it and change it by hand

Thanks massive.

My speech is that I had a very elaborate part of sheet metal and I needed to draw a mirrored version but with the possibility to edit each parameter because I needed to change a couple of incidents that stunts are if the parameters are there, but they become a slaughterhouse if I have a "stupid" body that is no longer sheet metal with all the consequences that arise.

Therefore I made a mirror from together with opposite hand and with configuration creation option inside the file (as you recommended me), then I saved everything well and eliminated the function of mirroring in the axieme. I went to edit the mirrored part configuration according to my needs and inserted it inside the axieme as any configured part.

My speech was intended only to seek to make me as poor as possible to configure every part of my work in order to fight the problems of slowing down that we now know.

but so much, if there is no other solution well come this option.

thanks as always,

can you attach the file?...

Excuse me if rudely I connect, but the "left hand" in the environment part applied to a repetition of an extruded cut, is it possible? I didn't find a way to do it.

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

in the environment part there is no left hand mirror, but only mirror.
Of course you can

 

[Atreiou]

in fact I managed to make only the normal mirror. . Thank you.

 

[tanticapelli]

Sorry I can't share the part for confidentiality issues.

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

in fact I managed to make only the normal mirror. . Thank you.

as I have already written in ambient part there is no one left hand mirror, to want to be precise even in the environment together but hand opposta.
Why this difference? because in a cohesive environment you can have the need to assemble a part or a subaxieme specularly regarding a symmetry axis but without changing the opopure geometry to make it geometrically specular having in fact a new model but without having to remake it. in the environment instead this adistintion is not necessary.
What did you want to do otherwise? you have been misleading about the question and even more about the answer; I think he has become a mantra... a design, a model, a plastic, something that helps us understand what you have in mind.

Hi.

Maybe you can create a mirrored part with opposite hand from the environment along with all editable functions by selecting the option "Selected component island".

to tell the truth I have the doubt whether it was the option with popping in the "league" section. . .

Anyway, I did it and I'm happy with it!

so many hairs

 

[tanticapelli]

Yes, it is the option in the "league" section ---> "interrupt link in the original part" in the last page of the property manager of "specchia Components" that allows to inherit all functions (independent yields) even if we want a new part instead of a mirroring in the form of configuration.

I didn't know what "Selected component island" is for.

so many hairs

n.b.: the guide says
island selected component hides all mirrored components, except the mirroring of the selected component, so as to facilitate the examination of the orientation.will be a temporary display option to help us complete the function without wrong
