Point1: Point object representing the first point of the plane used for mirroring.

Point2: Point object representing the second point of the plane used for mirroring.

Point3: Point object representing the third point of the plane used for mirroring.

MakeCopy: Boolean value indicating whether or not to mirror the original object or a copy of the original object.

Solid3D Object : Mirror3D Method

Description

Mirrors an object about a plane defined by three points.

Syntax
