With the Mirror3D method, you can mirror objects along a specified mirroring plane specified by three points.
For more information on mirroring objects in 3D, see “Mirror Objects” in the User's Guide.
This example creates a box in model space. It then mirrors the box about a plane and colors the mirrored box red.
