Q - question

How to mirror objects with automatic deletion of the originals?

A - answer If you want to use the command MIRROR without the deletion prompt, automatically deleting the original (source) entities (no Yes/No prompt), you can prepare your own version of the MIRROR command.

Create a new command in the CUI dialog and assign the following menu macro to it:

^C^C_select;\_mirror;_p;;\\_yes;  
Then map this new command to a new icon or keyboard shortcut and you can use it to quickly mirror drawing objects without making copies of the objects in the DWG.
