Okay, some Mirror testing; this is the scene creation code:
private function buildMirrorTest():void
{
var mat:ShadingColorMaterial = new
ShadingColorMaterial(0xFFFF00);
var sphere:Sphere = new Sphere( { radius:4,
material:mat } );
m_view.scene.addChild(sphere);
mesh = Max3DS.load("axis.3DS");
mesh.addOnSuccess(flip);
m_view.scene.addChild(mesh);
}
private function flip(_event:Loader3DEvent):void
{
var cube:LoaderCube = _event.target as LoaderCube;
cube.handle.x = 0;
cube.handle.y = 0;
cube.handle.z = 0;
}
This just loads a basic multiple-mesh model as seen here:
http://www.creativenorth.co.uk/post-content/away003.png
There are 4 meshes in this model, one for the main three bars and one
each for the three end-cubes. All have the same material applied.
If I then apply a Mirror be making the following change:
private function flip(_event:Loader3DEvent):void
{
var cube:LoaderCube = _event.target as LoaderCube;
cube.handle.x = 0;
cube.handle.y = 0;
cube.handle.z = 0;
Mirror.apply(cube.handle, "x", true, true);
}
I get the correct, expected, result:

However using either x+ or x- gives the following respectivly:

In addition; if I do:
cube.handle.x = -40;
Mirror.apply(cube.handle, "x", true, true);
It should mirror about the world origin, but I get (yellow sphere is
at 0,0,0):

It's worth noting that the same results are seen if the Mirror's
recenter parameter is set to be false.
