You should be able to fix it by creating another file that references your
file using a mirror matrix, and then inline that part with an inliner tool.
So, for instance, if your part is x123.dat, you would create a file called
mirror.dat with the following line and nothing else:
1 16 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 x123.dat
Then run an inliner on mirror.dat. You'll presumably have to clean up the
header comments and rename the file after the inliner runs. (I think that's
the proper setting to mirror the X axis. You can try it out, and if it
isn't, you can change either of the 1s after the -1 to be -1, and change the
-1 to be 1.)

| (...) Although I got MLCad to do it for me, this is good advice as I don't like what else it did to the file. Can you recommend a good inliner that runs in Win2K and is suitable for novice use? Thanks! (22 years ago, 31-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
