_bm3      Apply Symmetry command (Symmetry Menu)

Top 

 

This powerful command immediately replicates the current selection using the currently active symmetry elements --- be they a center of symmetry, Y rotation axis or any of the three mirror planes.  A single face, for example, can be repeated around a Y rotation axis to form a many sided cylinder, or a single mirror plane can be used to enforce bilateral symmetry on an object.

In the above illustration a soccer ball has been reproduced by an eightfold Y rotation axis and a X_Z mirror plane using the Apply Symmetry command.
