Edit Menu in Version 2.7.4

I need to mirror a part downloaded from Prusa 3d. I am using slicer 2.7.4 +win64 on a Windows 10 platform. But the Edit drop-down doesn't include a "mirror" command. It appears that earlier slicer versions do have that feature. What am I missing?

Best Answer by Walter Layher:

You are in "Simple" mode. Please switch to "Advanced" or "Expert" mode. The buttons for this are on the top right of your screen. Then try again and the options will be there.

Right click on the object, about half way down the popup menu is mirror

Hi Gearloose99,

you have selected multiple objects.
Remove the selection (by clicking on an empty spot on the buildplate) and then right-click a single object instead.

I'm quite sure then you will find the mirror function.

(mirroring is available even in simple mode)

Thank you, @walter-layher and @lesmou. I double-checked the particular parts using your suggestions and found the error!
