Symmetry object messing up selection tags

[Dutchbird]

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:

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!
