is there any RiR component to find mirrored revit elements?
I had a look at filters or element components. It seems none of the components give the information about mirrored elements.
I assume we have to use RevitAPI to look up the mirrored elements.
anyone has similar experiences?

There is a Revit Api property, you can also look at the elements Hand / Facing.
Online Documentation for Autodesk's Revit API: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2017.1, 2018

Hi @Japhy ,
Thanks as always…
I see… looking at Hand/ Facing is still not enough to filter mirrored elements, if elements are mirrored multiple times from the different planes.
I will check the RevitAPI to find the mirrored property. Thanks!!

Hi @kike ,
Thanks for the interests and response.
I was thinking to build the dashboard like the image below using RiR:
My qeustion was to find mirrored elements in the current document using RiR.
I understood from Japhy’s response that we have to use RevitAPI to find the mirrored property.
Thank you.

This is cool,
If you don’t want to relay on scripting, the mirrored property is the result of doing an XOR on all the flip properties like this:

Hi @kike ,
Hi @Japhy ,
Thanks for the solution! Amazing…
Gate operators are perfect solution to find the mirrored elements.
