I'm making horns for an animal object. My basic technique is to rez a torus, set its delta to .667 and its rotations to 4, then taper one end to a point.
It works fine, except that I need mirror-image horns, not identical ones. Is there any way to make a torus turn the other way?

Will setting the delta to -0.667 and tapering the other end do it?

From: BamBam Sachertorte Will setting the delta to -0.667 and tapering the other end do it? I thought it would, but it just creates the same torus as +0.667, just upside-down. |

Have you tried switching the Skew direction? Surely if you have Revolutions above 1, you have some Skew (it turns up automatically).
I think this would do it.

I tried that in-world and it works. Stick a minus sign in front of the skew value and the torus becomes its mirror image.
