Hi Jürgen,

if you do filtering by setting some areas in an FFT display black or white and doing a backward transform, ImageJ takes care of adding the mirrored black or white areas automatically.  Thus, usually you need not care about adding the mirror yourself.
By the way, ImageJ also smooths the mask to avoid 'ringing'.

If you need a selection for some other purpose and you want to invert it:
To make the inverse of both selections, add both, the original and the inverted to the Roi Manager and then run More>>Or (Combine). In a macro, this is roiManager("OR");
Then you can run("Make Inverse");
