Symmetric Constraint

Window | Constraints | Symmetric

The Symmetric constraint maintains a spatial relationship between objects across a symmetrical mirror line. When the symmetric constraint has been applied to circles, it will make both radii equal to each other.

In the example below left, the line of symmetrical reference line is shown by point 1. The circle shown as point 3 is made symmetrical to the same distance between circle 1 and the reference line. The radius of circle 2 is changed to equal the same radius as circle 1.

The symmetric constraint marker is applied to the first selected circle.
