REFlect one of the following objects at an axis

ALL    BOUndary    COLor    CONnection    CORner     DOMain    EXPansion    GRId    WINdow

ALL

Argument: i

Meaning: Reflect all boundaries and expansions at the x or y axis. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

BOUndary

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect the boundary number n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all boundaries, n<0 – do for boundary numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

COLor

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect all boundaries and expansions with color n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all domains, n<0 for domain numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

CONnection

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect all boundaries and expansions with connection flag n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all domains, n<0 – do for domain numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

CORner

Arguments: n m i

Meaning: Reflect the corner number m of the boundary number n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all boundaries, n<0 – do for boundary numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

DOMain

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect all boundaries and expansions with domain number n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 for all domains, n<0 for domain number 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

EXPansion

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect the expansion number n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all expansions, n<0 – do for expansion numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.

GRId

Argument: i

Meaning: Reflect the grid used for representing the field. i=1: x®-x, i=2: y®-y, i=3: z®-z.

WINdow

Arguments: n i

Meaning: Reflect the borders of the graphics window number n at the x or y axis. Special cases: n=0 – do for all windows, n<0 – do for window numbers 1 up to -n. i=1: x®-x components, i.e., reflect at y axis, i=2: y®-y components, i.e., reflect at x axis.
