Creating Line Reflections

This tutorial explains how to create reflected Pencil+ 2 Lines.

1. Create two objects (one that will cause a reflection and one that will be reflected).
   Go to the [Create] panel and press the [Geometry] button, then select [Standard Primitives]. Finally press the [Plane] and [Teapot] buttons in the [Object Type] rollout to create a flat plane and a teapot objects.

2. We shall create a mirror-like texture using Pencil+ 2 Reflection/Refraction map.
   Press the [M] key to open the [Material Editor] dialog box, and set black for [Diffuse], and white for [Specular].

4. Set the value of [Reflection/Refraction Map] in the [Base Parameters] rollout to [Flat Mirror]. Select [Flat Mirror] in the [Material/Map Browser] and press [OK].
   We now completed the configuration of our mirror material. Assign this material to the Plane object.
