Hi, in CREO ADVANCED PLUS 9 I have to mirror THE 4c28fw08500.asm wrt the green SYM_TRASV plane.

If I check the "Reuse selected model" I obtain the wrong position in the picture below:

Instead, I want to obtain the correct position that I have when I check the "Create a nex model", but I don't want to create a new code model.

How can I fix this problem?

 

Thank you.

What you are asking for is not a mirror.  It is closer to a pattern.

 

If the original location is defined with respect to the datum plane.  You can use that dimension to control the placement (or pattern) of the second one.  Otherwise, you can create a measurement feature and use that to control the placement.

There is always more to learn.

    I agree with kdirth a pattern would be the way to get what you want. I wouldn't use a mirror for an assembly anyway it can cause problems though it is better these days than it was in 2000i.
