opposite hand drawings

I have a shed load of modelsto becopied, opposite hand,which is not the problem. Its the drawings that go with them. We have to work outside of Intralink here and I know there was a convoluted way of producing the opposite hand drawings in Intralink but can anyone come up with a quick way of getting the opposite hand drawing without doing it the long way round?

bodlan,



Hi there. I was wondering, how are you getting the opposite hand
assembly? Do you copy it or mirror it? I have a model that
has almost 200 parameters controlling a bunch of parts in an
assembly. I am also using a skeleton to drive the geometry.
Currently, I am building in relations to determine which hand is
required, and then updating the skeleton based on the hand.
However, it would be nice if there were an easier way. This is
going to get ugly if I ever need two instances of the assembly.
And duplicating the features for each instance is a nightmare.



Thanks,

Jim
