Mirror functions as applied to AFX beams.

Thanks for the reply.  This model I show is pretty simple for purposes of illustration.  The broader application just means a lot of duplicated work -- duplications in beam ends, duplication in brackets, gussets, etc..  Yes, I've messed with mirroring just some components and building others by doing half the work in AFX, then mirroring at the part level.  It's more work than needed IMHO, and there are more down-the-road hiccups when things change.

I hate it when people say "yeah, but I do it in Solidworks", but, well, I do.  I have both systems here, and I was really hoping someone knew the magic bit to show me how to do it in Creo.  Based on a few responses, I'm guessing the answer is no.  Too bad, but you have more experience, I'm sure, so thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the response. Yes, mirroring at the part level is beneficial, for sure. Even mirroring full parts in the Framework assembly. The issue, IMHO, is the effort to do this with a more complicated structure. It has to be done piece by piece, part by part, gusset by gusset, bracket by bracket. It's a lot of time to do it one by one when it's all the same "mirror" function. To do more than one at a time, you have to deal with multiple levels of assemblies (like I did for the full shape in the image above).  There are a lot of interaction limits to having some parts in one assembly and some in another, all within yet another higher level assembly.

As mentioned, I was just hoping Creo had a clean way that I'm just not finding.  Thanks.

Thank you @SamuelBrantner for the definitive answer.  Glad to know I'm not just missing something.

Perhaps I'm not seeing the whole picture, but it seems like applying existing functions will do the job really well.  Add a pick in the mirror process to ask if the parts are to join together, or if the system should create new parts.  It already asks about a new part, or to reuse the part, so another choice to join (keep the result within each part) is consistent.  Really, it's combining existing functionality.  It would be easy enough, when mirroring in an assembly to have the user do 2 mirror operations - one mirror feature for parts that need to join (current part mode functionality), then a second mirror feature for the parts that don't join (current function, but expanded to include more than one part at a time).  Let the customer choose.  If they create something weird or inconsistent with a profile, that's OK.

Another possibility is to have a results box like when making an assembly cut, where the customer can choose which parts are joined in the mirror, and which parts to create a new "mirrored" part.  That's consistent with existing assembly functions.

New functionality for parts to join is really not new, since we can do it in part mode now.  The only issue I see with expanding the existing assembly mirror function to allow more than one part in the same feature is naming.  But, in AFX, that is already handled.  Or, in an assembly results box, include it (let the customer change the name if they want).  I see this as applying existing functions in a fairly simple, combined way to drastically enhance and accelerate AFX construction.  All the brackets, and gussets, and little things in the current process take a lot of time in redundant work.  More important, is all the extra redundant work when things need to change.  It would save a ton of time, and help avoid little mistakes like missing a bracket or gusset.

How do we switch this thread to be an enhancement request?

Anyway, thank you again for letting me know that it is not possible in the current software.
