is something I've done a lot of.  I'm a long-long time user of Pro/Engineer and I've sort of gotten used to being able to design things in assembly mode, where you have a part that is going to connect two other parts and you need to visualize the entire assembly to make the new part.  Maybe I'm too new to SW to know how this is done, but if there's some command that I need to use to do this I haven't found it.  You seem to be able to create the base feature, but adding anything else to the model seems to be impossible.

Also, is there a way of duplicating a part so that it's a mirror image of the part your duplicating?  It would sure save a lot of time on my part to be able to do this.  I know you do mirror features in part mode, but I can seem to find it for copy to or save as ... to mirror.  I hope I'm just not smart enough to find it, so if you can help I'd appreciate the guidance.
