HI

I have a question about mirring targets.

If I want to mirror 20 tagets in a path I have to copy the targets to a new path, and the mirror the path.Rs the creates a new routine automatically

Isnt it possible to just mirror the tagets and have rs to aske where to put them, without generating a new path.

Hi,

Thanks for the input. This could be a good improvement of the function. The reason for keeping the original targets and creating a new path with the mirrored ones, is to keep the history, in case the result of the mirror operation is different from what the user expects. But I suppose we can add an option for the user to select where he want the the mirrored targets, in a new path, in an existing path, or to replace the original targets.
