but I can't mirror morph in the elevation/section. When I use mirror and click in the elevation/section view, it always mirrored left and right, not up and down (Z axis)

 

Or only I can do is mirror it in the same elevation and rotate the new one 180° and move it up to the original one??

For objects it depends but for morph on the other hand you can go to 3d view and mirror from there or you can create an elevation/ section view then mirror from there. 😎

surprisingly you can't mirror a morph you can only rotate and mirror it then bring back to the same location or your preferred axis point. 😐

yeah, I can't make it. Can you show me a GIF or some op videos. I use mirror function, and want to drag a mirror line,  when I first click the view, they mirrored side by side.

This is the way you can do it a bit of a work around...

OK, Thank you for your reply. So you can't mirror morph on z axis directly either, haha. I am balanced.😁
