Tip:
You can use the Ground All Parts option on the Mirror Components dialog box to specify whether you want a ground relationship applied to the mirrored components. When you clear this option, the components are left unconstrained.
When the Action column is set to Mirror on the Mirror Components dialog box, a new document is created which contains an associative mirrored copy of the original geometry.
When the Action column is set to Rotate on the Mirror Components dialog box, a new occurrence of the original document is placed in the assembly.
When you mirror a part that contains assembly features, you can specify whether the part is mirrored along with its assembly features as a non-modifiable body, or that the part is mirrored without its assembly features, and remains associative to its parent part. When you mirror a part as a non-modifiable body, you can use the Remove Override Body command to remove the assembly feature geometry from the part and make it an associative mirrored copy of the parent part.
