Nope. I mean actually reflecting parts across X=Z. For example, the
following line:
2 24 a b c d e f
would reflect across X=Z as:
2 24 c b a f e d
All you do is switch the X and Z components of the vertices.
This feature would allow people to use LDS to create part-segments with
8-way radial symmetry.
