CreateSymmetryMap
v2.0
Creates a ClusterProperty that is a symmetry map along the YZ plane, the XZ plane or the XY plane. After you create a symmetry map, every time you move points on one side, the corresponding points on the other side of the symmetry map also move.
oReturn = CreateSymmetryMap( PresetObj, [InputObj], [Name], [PropPresetObj] ); |
Returns a collection of symmetry maps.
| Parameter | Type | Description | ||||

| InputObj | String | List of clusters or objects
or points clusters
Default Value: Current selection |

| Name | String | Name of the symmetry map property
