    Sometimes I use a Symmetry object on a model with a number of selection tags.
    After using "Connect Objects + Delete" the selection tags of the mirrored side of the models are gone.
    Is there another way to keep my selection tags.

      Hi Dutchbird,

      R8! Good times. Thanks for being such a long time on board! 🙂

      Please have a look here:

      https://help.maxon.net/c4d/2024/en-us/Default.htm#html/Symmeterize_Tool.html#PLUGIN_CMD_1059243

      In short, set up Symmetry as before, then use the
      Main Menu> Mesh> Clone> Symmetrize
      (Make sure the Symmetrize is "Link with Hub" is on or off, and explore if Cut Along Plane is wanted as well - or not)

      Is this working for you?

      Enjoy your Sunday

          Thank you, Dutchbird,

          Same here; I am still learning every day, but I would get bored otherwise 😉

          Enjoy!
