We need more in formation to be able to assist you.

  • Are you mirroring along the Y-axis? X-axis?
  • Correct print? Goal of all printing. 🙂  Typing error?
  • Ideally,  zip a copy of your .3mf project file and post it here.
  • Also post a picture showing the problem here.
  • Please provide more details explaining what you are expecting when mirroring, and what results you are getting.

I wish I could provide more, but I do not have enough information to even provide a WAG.

Thanks for the picture.

I usually don't use text in my prints. And if I do, I make the text a separate object in my CAD program and do all my mirroring there. You are stuck.

Is there a reason you want to mirror that test object? Can you not just rotate it?

RE: y-axis flipped

I re-read your posts and I think I misunderstood. I thought the picture was of mirrored object.  My bad.  Either the author of the object wanted it that way ( bizarre ), or somewhere along the line it got mirrored, or I am still unsure of the issue. 😀 

Please try to use descriptive filenames  describing the picture, like : 'non mirrored test object.jpg'

While people are willing to try and assist you, the more relevant information you provide in your first post, the better. I read your post several times and I was sure I understood it. Read it again this morning and now I am not so sure.
