Symmetry

Hi Eric
I have started to use "Symmetry with an axis", which I really haven't up til now.
If you look at the image below, I want to flip the curved line so that it is vertically symmetrical about the red line. So I want to make image A into image C.
So, in Image A, I select the curve and ⌘D it. Then I select Action >> Symmetry with an axis and click on the red horizontal line.
But instead of ending up with image C, I end up with image B – the curve flips horizontally around whatever point on the red line I select.
How can I control this to do a vertical symmetry??
