MirrorDC

MirrorDC is a simple wrapper class which is always associated with a real DC object and either forwards all of its operations to it without changes (no mirroring takes place) or exchanges x and y coordinates which makes it possible to reuse the same code to draw a figure and its mirror – i.e.

reflection related to the diagonal line x == y.

New in version 2.5.0.
