I am not sure if this has been discussed/requested, but on the concept design side, I would love to be able to use a mirror mode, where every move or action would be repeated on the other side of an axis/plane.

This would be gold in my opinion.

It's not yet the case when you make a mirror ?

Any modification (Add Pts Move... etc) of the original will be reflected to the mirror! ;)
Even you make something else between return to the original!

Hey Pilou! :D

Yes, mirrored objects can do that. But I would like to be able to boolean sub or draw polylines and have the actions repeated in symmetry without having to mirror each element. It could even be in ghost mode, just projection of the other half of the model or drawing to give you a sense of the whole. Is it dumb?

Hi nameless, that would definitely be useful. I want to have a deeper history function that could do that but there will be a whole lot of work involved in making that so I'm not sure when it will be able to happen. Maybe something for drawing could be done first before a full on history stack.

Hi Michael! The fact that you have your eyes on it makes me very happy :)

I think that it would untie the hands of many concept artists/illustrators that "think" while drawing. Being able to appreciate the design result of an operation without having to go through the steps of trimming and mirroring will be gold. And MoI has this ability already, to be very close to the intuitive drawing process and simplicity of lines on paper, so it would be a feature in accordance to its philosophy.

Thank you!

Personally I dislike Discord I have joined many groups on there and never found them useful mostly because the UI is all over the place I prefer this simple clean forum UI.
Slack is another that I find limiting even worse than Discord as it archives (hides) posts after a small limit is reached unless it is paid for.
At the moment I am on limited Internet connection so appreciate a low overhead site like this one even more.
