[not bug] 3d combine and mirror surface get freeze

[wings59000]

Hello,

from https://youtu.be/RHg4A6zAeU4?t=428 i try to get the same combine and mirror but i get a freeze from wings3d that you can see here.
I have to kill processus with ctrl alt sup from win 10.
I have tried 2 times it is the same.
Here the capture video : https://youtu.be/5uOsHNwERm8

If i just select the face with miror i don't get the cushions

---

To get the good result i have to first
- select the face of the sofa and mirror to get all the sofa
- repeat this process with each cushions but they won't be symmetric

Thanks for report. I'm going to check.

You can also use Flip command. If I'm not wrong, you have an mouse option to duplicate the object.

Thanks for your reply

I arrived with
- select all the objects.
- duplicate on x axis.
- combine all the new object (to get symmetry with flip).
- flip it on x axis - put on the 2 faces.

It is a little longest.

wings59000, I just watched your video and in fact it was not hanging.
Notice you changed from Body mode to Face mode selection after you Combine the objects. So, you got the entire amount of faces selected - the Red ones.

Notice that Wings3D's commands act over the selected items. As you have all faces selected and applied Mirror command it will mirror the entire object on each selected face. Like this one I used just a few faces.


So, that is not a bug. You just have to remember about to select only the element to be affected.

Wings3D allow us to apply the command to multiple selections.
Sometimes it can be used to construct interesting models (a dodecahedron flower ):

Thanks for your reply. I understand.

I gave the solution in my essay just before -> combine, space to unselect and select face for mirror.
