Mirroring
The Mirror Tool allows you to create mirrored copies of the currently selected items. The mirroring is performed on a user defined axis.
To use the mirror tool:
- Select the item(s) that you would like to mirror
- Click on the mirror tool
- Click and drag to specify the mirror axis
- While dragging the mirror preview is visualized on the screen
- Release the mouse button to apply the mirror command.
Note that in most cases, the mirrored items will be of the same type as their original counterparts. In cases where this is not possible a PolygonNode will be used instead. The following table summarizes this "original-to-mirrored" mappings:
| Original Node | Mirrored Node |
|---|---|
| RegularPolygonNode | PolygonNode |
| TextNode | PolygonNode |
| SpiralNode | PolygonNode |
| GearNode | PolygonNode |
Limitations
- For the time being, mirroring of sprites is not supported.
