2.       Select the entity, and then press Enter.

3.       Specify the first point of the mirror line.

4.       Specify the second point of the mirror line.

5.       In the prompt box, choose one of the following:

·         Yes, Delete Entities – deletes the original entities.

·         No, Keep Entities – retains the original entities.
