In Moray I kind of assume there must be a way to mirror a grouped set of
objects that has a "handedness" to it. I have built a complex robotic arm
and of course want a right and left side. However, after using a zillion
features I have not yet run across a way to do this...if anyone knows
please give me a clue.
Thanks in advance.

Select your group
type crtl+d ( as duplicate)
allow scale transformation, scale by -1 in the direction you want
choose wether you want a reference copy ( all changes in the 1st group is
refreshed in copy) or not
click ok
done :-)

THANKS for the prompt response. It makes sense but I would have never
guessed it on my own! Heh heh. I did look under "mirror" in the
documentation index but I came up with nothing.
