20 years ago, SW was an ant that could lift 10 times its own weight.

Now SW is an elephant that can only lift half its weight.

A few years from now, it will be a whale--biggest thing ever, and unable to lift a thing.

Also, not sure if you'd be willing to check out my post where I posed a few questions. Would be great to have additional feedback from multiple users on some of these issues.
I cannot recall if I have used Pack n Go recently, will investigate this when I am back in my office. (I have been off work awhile with the c0vid and unlike some of you lucky blokes, I do not have home access..)
I will look into the issues you speak of, that I am able..

Surely something like this can be added to the bottom of the feature input dialog as an option that can be engaged if desired, rather than the secondary plane being a box automatically populating within the existing workflow.

Call me stoopid I guess (). The help picture is a bad example.....but we do this kind of stuff all the time where I have to create two mirror features. So that said, this is a better enhancement than some others.

SPR 1228145 - Pack and Go assembly does not reference components that are renamed with Select / Replace or from the column 'New Filename'. It's implemented in SolidWorks 2022 SP3.

Its really quite amazing how many broken things they can pack into one program.

And just when you think ok .. we are good now .. they release a new Service pack that fixes some things, and trashes others.

must be pretty cool at the dinner table when they get home from work ...

Mate, I've seen you around this, and the old pre-swamp forum, for some time.. and you are definitely not stoopid..!

And so.. fair call. And a good descriptive example of this being useful. (Tho not really for me.. extremely rare that this kind of symmetry from front-to-rear would occur.) but yes, I have a better understanding now of the logic behind it.. correct me tho if I'm wrong that a circular pattern around an axis wouldn't do the same thing..?
Anyhoo, happy you like it.. I would just prefer the option to not have it. :D

Seems like this could have just been an option to toggle on or off if needed.

As you know if you follow this or other SW forums, I'm quick to scream and holler if I think a new enhancement is implemented poorly, but I will strongly disagree with you about this one. First, while I don't know that I'll use it much, I can see where it would be helpful for some people. Modeling a leg on a table, then adding it to the other three corners with one operation would be a big help.

Second, there's no need to change your workflow. If you'll click on the caret to close the "Secondary Mirror Face/Plane" section of the property manager then you can use your previous workflow until/unless you open it again.

I can see the point of the multiple plan mirror BUT as you say it should be a tick box option.

Prime example of lack of thought or maybe too much work or both.

We had a few years ago that you could go one way in changing fillet to chamfer as a update. It doesn't go both ways. You still can't change to any type of fillet later = variable to standard. It would make 100% sense if you could. I'm pretty sure the coders know this but the issue is it is too much work to fix or won't be back compatible or again to much work to make it back compatible.

No worries, I didn't take it personally and I've got plenty of posts calling out what I would perceive as "stoopid" functionality.

In this case, a circular pattern would only work for a square base where the features themselves are symmetrical in nature.

ok ... So I was finally able to get 2022 SP2.

Tried to do the mirroring again. same failed result.

I did a side by side with 2021 SP5.1 on one screen, and 2022 SP2 on my other screen

I mirrored the same details, in the same assembly in both versions side by side.

i verified each and every setting at each step of the mirror. both identical.

previews looks identical and correct.

compete the command .. 2021 SP5.1 works perfectly ... 2022 SP2 fails. details upside down, and inside other details.

Service request had been reopened with Solidworks by my VAR.

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, I was a SolidWorks VAR. This was in the days when there were two releases a year.

One of the Swx support folks, who still works there, told me that there were two developmental versions of SolidWorks, with two teams of programmers. They could not maintain the pace of the two releases a year without parallel development.

This explained why occasionally you would see regressions like this one in a newer version. The two versions had gotten out of sync.

It would make sense that this is still the methodology used, and would explain the behavior mentioned above.

It was often highlighted by functionality that was added in Service Pack releases versus an upgrade. Many times the added functionality did not migrate to the parallel version.

This really doesn't add anything to the discussion, but is useful for situational awareness.

Thank for sharing that. It really helps to understand how these bugs are able to get thru. I wonder what kind of quality control and testing actually takes place before a roll out. Over the years, it seems like some of the most commonly used features are the ones that get broken. you cant help but wonder if they actually even tested anything when things like mirroring and pack and go aren't working properly.

I would imagine they have a series of standard data sets that they do all their testing on, so each feature probably passes with those particular models. It's then when there's something different in the model that it falls over.

We have a winner.

Fixed can mean:
Fixed
Semi-Fixed
Expired (Outdated but not fixed)
Fixed the active bug but created one further in the programmation.
A new feature adresses it(but not exactly, and the new feature most likely is riddled with bugs)
Etc..

Thanks!

I have already done that actually. and I have sent a follow up one as well.
I was hoping to get more feedback and reaction to this issue, but I don't know if our VAR's hands are tied?
