No, I'm not comparing two completely different pieces, they're exactly the same!
One from the symmetric part tool, and one where I modified the dimensions one by one of each function (as I indicated in the question)!
So I'm going to use the one I modified by hand (because it's much more practical for drawing).
But since I have 2 versions of the symmetrical piece, I wanted to understand the volumes!
Yes I used geometry, sorry for forgetting it
I think that Tools/Compare/Geometry is not suitable as it is.
It's good for comparing volumes with the same orientation (origin in the same place in particular).
If you want to use it, you'll have to do a manipulation:
_Pièce 1 (original volume)
_J get Piece 2 from it by symmetry that I modify (symmetry based on the reference planes , it will be simpler for the rest).
_Une finished piece 2 I make a symmetry of it: Piece 2-SYM using the same plane of symmetry !
_Comparaison of Piece 1 and Piece 2-SYM!
Edit: Piece 2-SYM is a "garbage" part that is not intended to be kept.

In fact I just saw that my views are identical (right side etc), but the orientation of the coordinate system is not the same!
Is it possible to modify it? A priori, no, you have to create two identical coordinate systems for each room and there it works!
Thank you all!
How did you create your contact information?
because my 2 rooms are on the same plane in symmetry but if one day I have a problem I'm interested to know
I don't see how origins are a problem
- if 2 pieces (design checker) substantially similar it designates the differences from one to the other
- or 2 plans (drawcompare)
if the reference numbers are not taken from the origins

I think that's more the problem the ref of the sides compared to the origin.
@gt22
Test a part and its symmetry by the face plane for example (assuming that the part is made according to the rules of the art)
We can see the differences,
Now your symmetry, you do it on a sideways plane (like 30°). And you compare the 2 volumes. There you see a big difference! Because the symmetry is no longer oriented in the same way with respect to the axes!
Duplicate, if there is one who wants to put this answer in "Report abuse"
@ Benoit I regret for me a symmetry of a part is a symmetry of a part
I say a symmetry of the part
I'm not talking about plane symmetry
a symmetry of a part which, due to its origin and axis of symmetry and outside the part, the part symmetrical at the opening via the origin will certainly not have the same place on the view but will still be symmetrically identical
@+ ;-((
No but that's not the problem @gt22, have you tested the volume comparison yes or no? Try what I tell you, you will understand right away!
The design checker tool is made for that No

@Benoit is something there
The symmetry of parts create a new part. And then you compare these 2 pieces.
So there is no need to see a 30° angle or anything else.
Symmetry with respect to a plan c is when you are in the same room, you make a symmetry and you configure it, either room A or configuration A-sym.
Since SW2012 I have ALWAYS messed up my symmetry.
The first successful ones were with 2014 because there is a line in Insertion/symmetrical part
you can even break the link (to be done only if the piece has to be strongly modified compared to the original
And now it works by itself
capture_insertion_piece_sym.png
It also works very well under 2012 you just have to make a symmetry axis line out of the part field and break the links
Simple and elementary
and I reissue a symmetry is a symmetrical part and if you compare these parts besides the reverse they are KIF-KIF
well I don't understand where the problem is
it is the image that is retorted

@ Benoit how do you put it wrong?
I have been using the Symmetric function since the 2004 version without any problems.
I was talking about a crooked plane since @Lucas indicates that it uses a face for its symmetry and not a reference plane.
For me, the "compare" tool is not revolutionary or intelligent. We could do more or less the same thing by inserting the second piece to be compared, in the first. Or even by putting them both in an assembly and putting one in a flashy color. And in addition you can "realign" them in space unlike this function.
Good go, white flag I give up...
@ Benoit I was talking about a complete part by a part of a part that is symmetrical
I did say axis of symmetry outside the part
No functions to be symmetrical or part of a part to be symmetrical
we are very misunderstood
