I have just created i control view for a customer, on a vessel.
This process, and alot of other once is the same on both sides of the ship, just with different tags. It takes alot of time to manually redo a picture, its not cost effective and usually it doesnt have the same spacings etc on the different views afterwards either.
My question is:
Can i morror or flipp a view i have created, and continue working with it from there?
I'm not sure if there is an easier way to do this someone else might want to chime in here. If I had to do it I would use the following method:
Select the items you need to be "flipped"
add the following to style:
transform:scale(-1, 1)
(You can mess around with the numbers example (1, 1), (-1, -1) etc..
I tried it on the Pipes group, but it seems to work on the entire view.
I tried it on the Bottom left container, and it worked isolated.
Tried to copy the piping and some other stuff into a new container, but then all objects where given new X, Y, width and hight numbers (REALY ennoying, amazing if someone knows why. Seems to happend when i copy/paste objects that is rotated/angle value....)
My plan was to create a container with everything but the control objects, and add them separatelly.
At core we're looking for a way to cut engineering cost on puctures that in principle can be flipped.
At short, i think the approch would be to flipp/morror all pipes and SVGs etc. Not the control objects as theese seaminglly will be messed up with labels etc when flipped.
