I'm trying to convert a raster logo to vector using Sketch. I've traced out part of the logo with an open vector, but only one-half of it. Now I want to mirror (flip horizontally) a copy of that open path, and join the two points. Here's the left half:



I copy and paste that, then flip the copy horizontally (I wish there was a mirror-across-axis feature). Then I drag it horizontally (with shift held down) until the left edge of the copy snaps to the right edge of the original. When this is done, the copy is 1/3 of a pixel lower than the original.



I can't figure out another way to accomplish this. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Select both paths and use 'align to bottom' in the alignment toolbar

It seems the solution for your problem is in this answer:


Go to sketch > preferences (on a mac press CMD + ,), and under the first tab (General), uncheck the first box (says "Pixel fitting: Fit layers and points to pixel bounds").


This will allow your objects to align properly when mirroring.
