std::sketch::mirror2d

Mirror a sketch.

Only works on unclosed sketches for now.

Mirror occurs around a local sketch axis rather than a global axis.

mirror2d(
  @sketches: [Sketch; 1+],
  axis: Axis2d | Edge,
): Sketch

Arguments

NameTypeDescriptionRequired
sketches[Sketch; 1+]The sketch or sketches to be reflected.Yes
axis`Axis2dEdge`The axis to reflect around.

Returns

Sketch

Examples

// Mirror an un-closed sketch across the Y axis.
sketch001 = startSketchOn(XZ)
    |> startProfileAt([0, 10], %)
    |> line(end = [15, 0])
    |> line(end = [-7, -3])
    |> line(end = [9, -1])
    |> line(end = [-8, -5])
    |> line(end = [9, -3])
    |> line(end = [-8, -3])
    |> line(end = [9, -1])
    |> line(end = [-19, -0])
    |> mirror2d(axis = Y)
