Actually i find somehow this new system more benefic. I understand that in the old one, the symmetry actually changes the object topology wich is a problem in a more parametric way of work. If that object has somekind of pose morph target, in the old system, that would be a major issue, because it would change the object topology under the symmetry object. In your first picture the image stays original and the symmetry actually creates a new mesh. I think that is a good idea in order to preserve original topology. Another option is to activate scene symmetryze tool and work from there. Since it is a tool and not a generator, it will change the object topology as you prefer.
 
i have here some examples that might help


1 - mirror or symmetry (option for modelling)
2 - activate scene symmetry
3 - scene symmetry options
4 - symmetryze and options (this one is probably the one you like more)
5 - symmetrize selection options
6 - symmetry generator tool

Hey
 
If you install the insydium bridge for c4d S26 you can still use those toools. Some are working better than others but overall it works.

unfortunatelly there is no R2023 version. i hope they still reçaease it someday. 
 
cheers

Hi
 
Just to say that i solved the problem.  Apparently it was a faulty preference file. Reseting the preferences folder solved the issue.
 
cheers

Maxon aknowledges the error and for now and it will try to solve it in future releases.
