Bug report - Mirror function changes mirror-plane erratically


B.Brincken

The mirror function is part of the 'creator' license, and promises a function that often needed tedious work before. 
I have constructed a suspension with various sub-components and want to mirror the right side to the left. 

Now the mirror function together with component option does create a mirrored copy, but not at the adjacant place - on the other side of the mirror plane.

Example screenshots:
1. Before clicking the component, the place where the mirror-copy is expected, based on the violet mirror-plane > is shown as an orange wireframe box (left).
2. But after clicking, the mirrored component is generated directly next to the original, overlapping it partly (right).
3. Might this be acceptable for one component, the mirror applied to the higher structured component > yields parts scattered around at unpredictable places, which renders the mirror function practically unusable.
