Hi all,
As we seen the mirrored part in the sketch can be copied or just mirrored without copy, but I haven't seen any option similar to that in assembly. Can anyone please provide some details regarding that?
Thanks

Hi Glenn,
I am thankful. I have tried that option but it didn't helped my work.
To be very clear, I have 10 components in an assembly, in which 5 of them are on the left, 3 of them are on the right and 2 are on the top. Now I want to move right side components to left and top side to bottom with out having the original components(i.e., original components have to get deleted by itself or we have to delete manually).
Thanks and Regards

You can mirror the components in the Assembly, but if you then delete the original components the mirrored ones will be deleted also. Your best option will probably be to edit the mates holding the original components in place instead of mirroring and deleting them. I hope this addresses your problem, but I'm not sure.
I am thankful.

Please provide the solution without getting the parts again i.e., using some assembly feature.

First you have to learn the technique how to create and work with configurations - powerful tolls will help you in many other situations too.

I'm curious about something. Why are you so insistent on this workflow? Why not just place the original parts where you need them to be and not do the Mirror?
Hi Dan,
I like your idea and I have done the procedure accordingly, but I have seen a problem with mates. This also creates problem to my solution. I need the mates should also mirrored accordingly. Please provide the solution.
Because, as I have asked if the parts are non-countable then mating each and every component will be tough task in the assembly.
Thanks

Almost sounds like you just want to rotate the screen image such that some parts on the right look like they are on the left and some parts on the top look like they are on the bottom.
Rotate the screen and save the view.
I'm not sure what you want, but if you need to create a mirrored version of a component in an Assembly, click the little blue arrow at the top of the Mirror Components Property Manager and there will be an option near the bottom to create an opposite hand version.
