copy and reflect problems

[peterbrown]

I have gone to great lengths to model an overframe situation, and am trying to copy and reflect the second half of what I have created. I copy and try to reflect about the ridge board with no luck. Can someone advise me?

Try drawing a cad line down the center of the ridge and reflect about that.

Tried that on the first two rafters, see result attached

This happens with p-line solids. After reflection just grab it in plan view and spin it around.

I would just copy it and paste off to the side,then use the transform replicate to reflect it first.
Then move it to where it goes..
Some times the simple way is faster..

that seems to work, thanks

In the DBx specify the rafters as manual height, or chief will try to figure iit out on its own (not a good thing.)
