I have been trying to reflect objects for some time where I want to cut something , then with this one half reflect and copy it to make a new shape, for example half circle reflects and copies to make a circle. Reflect and copy spinns it in position but then I have to manually and carefully move it across to make a whole shape and sometimes it is hard to be sure I have them precisely aligned before merging, is there a way of making it reflect from one side to do this without having to align the two halves manually? also this same problem might arise to just join two shapes without reflection, how do you know when you have them exactly side by side before merging,thanks, sam
