Add switch - "leave only mirror", when "transform body"
Original issue: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/issues/14117
Feature request. Removing the 'Bughunt' from the title. Also, I believe this functionality is possible currently. I have fully tried it but you should be able to create an App::Link to the original part. Then set the scale to -1 and adjust the scale list to control which direction to scale along. The result should be the link being mirrored.
This "way" is very roundabout. As I understand it, it is quite simple to delete the "basic solid" (when the switch is on - "leave only mirror")
The workaround isn't ideal but AFAIK, it does achieve the goal.
We have to prioritize where we spend development effort. I've left the issue open and noted that it's a feature request. IMHO, if the goal can be achieved in some other way, then making a new feature to do it easier should be lower priority. Of course, if someone wants to implement it, a contribution would be gladly accepted ;-)
Thank you. I realized.

It seems to me that blocking one line from the list (when the switch is on) will solve the problem very easily.
Although maybe I'm wrong.
On a previous project, I took an almost similar "workaround" and got an error embodied in metal.
Is there an existing issue for this?
Problem description
You cannot leave only the new part of the mirror "body"
So that the result would be like this
