Can anyone offer any tips to flip an existing house plan from a right side garage to left side garage. I am working on a plan that is about 99% complete with notes and details. Any tricks to make the flip easier or must you flip the basement, then first floor, then second floor, then roof, etc.? Thanks! Rob

Keep in mind that the mirror project tool may not mirror perfectly. You will need to check all your work to make sure everything mirrored well. In-place families and face based families are a couple examples of elements that don't always like being mirrored. Their notion of "origin" may not reconcile with the flipped condition. When they don't the usually end up well beyond where they once were. The tool is still FAR easier than trying to use the Mirror command on the model yourself. Just be prepared for some possible cleanup.

Thanks everyone. I found the "tool" (Mirror Project under Manage / Position) I will give it a try. I ended up flipping the home from the site page. I had to go back and do some cleanup but it worked OK. Thanks again for the help.
Take care,
Rob
