Mirrored drawing
I have a 2-D complete drawing that is finished.
The thing is that I need to mirror¹ it and don't know how.

Please how do I do this?


¹) upper right corner will end up as upper left corner after mirroring.

Re: Mirrored drawing
Well, if you don't need to make changes after mirroring, then you can do this:

1) install (if not installed) the "copy as new furniture" plugin

2) select everything in your design, then use the "copy as new furniture" option

3) open a new document and paste the copied desing, which will appear as a single object

4) edit the object and mark "mirrored shape" checkbox

That's all.

Re: Mirrored drawing
Rolf,

Download and read the Plug-in Tutorial. (here)
Download and install the Advanced Edit plug-in.
Use that plug-in to mirror your design, in such a way that you can still edit it.

Does Advanced Edit plugin mirror? I think it only rotates.

Re: Mirrored drawing
No, it mirrors if you use a negative value for width or height. wink
