Hi, I have just found a suspicious bug in SW 2015. When I tried to mirror the component about the right (y-z) plane. it was not mirrored correctly.

I have tried to mirror the same component about front and top plane, the results were perfect.

Here is the print screen and the assembly file. You can have a look.

So my question is... how can I solve this problem? has SW published a bug fix about this before?

This is not bug but SW gives you option to orient your model in different orientation. Check attached video on how to fix your issue.

    For what its worth, I strongly suggest you make a separate part of a mirrored component (a separate part file), by using one of the methods. I recommend Insert>Mirror part
    
    This way you will have a separate part, with different revisions, custom properties, drawings, etc. Unless you are urging for something really really simple, a separate file is always a better way to go.
