Rotor
A fast mirror tool for Blender that works in both Object and Edit mode, driven by viewport gizmos.
What it does
- One-key
Alt+Xaccess in both Object Mode and Edit Mesh. - Click-a-gizmo mirroring with live Mirror modifiers (non-destructive) — or Real flipped copies.
- Edit-mode symmetrize: handles mirror the selection, dots mirror the full mesh.
- Global / Local / Cursor / Normal / Custom orientations and Active Element / Individual Elements / World / Cursor / Median Point / Object Origin / Custom pivots.
- An interactive Custom plane picker on
Space. - Mirror whole Collections, instanced through an empty.
- Full Blender Mirror-modifier options, opt-in per setting.
Two modes
-
Object Mode — the gizmo adds non-destructive Mirror modifiers (or Real copies) to the selected objects.
-
Edit Mesh — the gizmo sits on a plane derived from your selection and symmetrizes geometry across it.
