SymmetryTransformGenerator
Applies a symmetry transformation to the entire mesh.
commentnote
Only the plane or mirror symmetry is currently implemented in the SymmetryTransformGenerator. Point or rotational symmetries are not implemented.
Overview
The SymmetryTransformGenerator makes a mirror reflection of a mesh across an arbitrary plane (or line in 2D) supplied by the user. All input is expected to be three dimensional even if the mesh in question is two dimensional; in such a case, let the z component be 0 (for example, mirror_normal_vector = '1 1 0').
The user sets the plane that will be reflected over by giving two vectors: a vector that gives the position of any given point on the line/plane from the origin; and, a vector that is normal (aka perpendicular/ orthogonal) to said line/plane. The normal vector establishes the slope of the plane of reflection.
