Hi,I am using option 'symmetry' in Hyperview to mirror an assembly. The problem is, the parent assembly is also available after mirroring. I tried to hide the parent, but child assembly is also hiding. Is there any other option to make a mirror and keep the mirrored assembly

    Make symmetry by 'component':

    Hi Nguyen,

    I tried this already, but this does not work as I needed. The parent component is also visible along with the mirrored component.

    Symmetry and Axisymmetry tool in HyperView was developed only for visualization of contour plots.You can copy,reflect & sweep element (2d to 3d)but it would be available at graphical level.So mask functionality will pick both parent and child entity.

    Attached online help information for your reference.
