While trying to mirror a solid body, I get the error - "The feature does not fit inside the model size limits". Have I run into a maximum model size within SW? The file is 107Mb. There are only 22 features in the model and 1 solid body. The first feature is an imported part, hence the size. Any ideas?
Model Size Limit?

More likely it's referring to geometry size. The limit is 500m on either side of the origin. Perhaps a large radius center point? Any chance that's it? Surely it's not too small...
The part is just under 2m at it's longest. There could be a large radius in the imported geometry somewhere, I guess, but as the part is centered about the origin, mirroring it shouldn't put any geometry any further from the origin than it originally was.
BTW, I exported the model as a parasolid, imported it into UG, mirrored it, resaved as a parasolid and then reimported it back into SW. A big PITA, but I have my mirrored model.
