v1.5

Duplicates objects and mirrors the resulting objects across a given plane.

This command will fail where Duplicate fails.

At the moment, this works for chains and some simple geometry. DuplicateSymmetry on bone primitives behaves like simple geometry rather than chains. Some issues still have to be resolved in order to apply it to any geometry (use at your own risk).

oReturn = DuplicateSymmetry( InputObjs, [DuplicateConstraints], [ShareParent], [SymmetryPlaneA], [SymmetryPlaneB], [SymmetryPlaneC], [SymmetryPlaneD], [S3D_CMDARG_FREEZESCL] );

Returns an XSICollection object that contains the list of symmetric objects

Parameter	Type	Description
InputObjs	String	List of objects to duplicate and mirror. Default Value: Selected objects
DuplicateConstraints	Boolean	Duplicate the constraints on the objects? Default Value: True
ShareParent	Boolean	Share the same parent Default Value: False Possible Values: Description: True Will parent the symmetric object under the same parent as the original (or the symmetric parent, if any) False Will parent the symmetric object under the scene root.
SymmetryPlaneA	Double	(Symmetry plane equation) Ax + Default Value: 0
SymmetryPlaneB	Double	(Symmetry plane equation) By + Default Value: 0
SymmetryPlaneC	Double	(Symmetry plane equation) Cz = Default Value: 1
SymmetryPlaneD	Double	(Symmetry plane equation) D Default Value: 0
S3D_CMDARG_FREEZESCL	Boolean	Freezes negative scaling values created during the symmetry operation. Default Value: True Possible Values: Description: True Final scaling will be the absolute value of the original scaling. A center operator may appear in the construction history. False Duplicated objects will have negative scaling.
