Hi Jol,
Works fine on Vista, could just be a Mac issue.

Anybody else with a Mac care to try this ?

Jol

I get this to repeat consistently with 2d objects. Even without the gripper on. If I drag a copy of a 2d curve with gripper and ctrl. Regular mirror is always creating a copy??

Guys


Steps to repeat


Any 2d object use linked mirror to create a copy.
Now any object you try to use regular mirror tool on is creating a copy without ctrl pressed.

It seems linked mirror tool after using once it makes the standard mirror tool copy all objects instead of just mirror... like it is modal turning on copy mirror. If you close the program and reopen a file its ok until using linked mirror again.
