mirror
Contents
Syntax
- mirror -x|-y|-z old_object new_object
Argument(s)
- old_object
- Valid BRL-CAD Primitive
- new_object
- Name of new object to be created
- -x|-y|-z
- Axis to mirror across
Return Value(s)
- No Return Values for this command.
Description
The "mirror" command creates new_object by duplicating old_object and reflecting it along the indicated axis. If old_object is a primitive shape, then a new shape is created, with parameters adjusted to accomplish the mirror operation. If old_object is a combination, then new_object will simply be a copy of old_object with all of its members’ matrices set to perform the appropriate reflection.
Example(s)
- mged> mirror -x shape1 shape1_mirror
- Make a copy of shape1, name it shape1_mirror, and adjust its parameters so that it is a mirror image of shape1 across the yz plane.
