OpenBuildings™ Designer Help

Mirror a Building feature using the Mirror tool

  1. Press and hold down the <Ctrl> key.
  2. Select ( Mirror ), and complete tool settings.
  3. Select the Building feature to mirror.

    The feature (in this case a shape element used to create an opening in a Building form) highlights and a mirrored feature shape is dynamically attached to the pointer.



  4. Release the <Ctrl> key.

    The <Ctrl> key operation is active and the key no longer needs to be pressed for the current manipulation.

  5. Dynamically move the mirrored copy of the opening feature to the desired location and enter a data point to place it.


  6. Continue to enter data points to place additional mirrored copies of the opening feature, or Reset to stop the feature mirror operation.
