Mirror text: Keep Original missing

Workshop Modeling Questions
1

Hi everyone,

After the latest update, I can no longer find the Keep Original option when using the Mirror tool with text.

I need to mirror a text object vertically and keep only the mirrored result. Previously, I could turn off Keep Original, so the original text was removed automatically after mirroring. This was important for my daily workflow.

In Shapr3D 26.203.12356.0 on Windows, I currently:

  1. Open Transform > Mirror
  2. Select the text geometry
  3. Select the mirror plane
  4. Look for Keep Original

The option is no longer visible where it used to be, so I have to delete the original text stroke by stroke, which is extremely time-consuming.

Has Keep Original been moved to another location, or has this functionality changed? If it is now in the Parameter Card, could someone explain exactly how to access it?

My goal is to:

  • Mirror the text vertically
  • Turn off Keep Original
  • Keep only the mirrored text
  • Avoid deleting the original manually

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi @equasia.griffin

You can find “Keep Original” if you expand the Mirror card, either from your workspace or the history tab.

I believe the OP was asking about mirroring sketch text, not bodies.

Yes, I noticed that as well. The option is currently available for bodies only and is not available for sketches.
