The following example shows how coupling of rotation and reflection instancing can be used to simulate reflection in two planes using a random geometry.
The axis of rotation is defined using the Rotation Axis feature on the Rotation section of the Instance Transform tab. An axis parallel to the z-axis was set. Rotation only was applied initially. An angle of 180 degrees was implemented.
The next step involves creating an XY plane (called Plane 1
) at X= -1 and Z=1. For details, see Plane Command. After clicking to expand the Reflection/Mirroring
submenu, reflection is applied on Plane 1
.
