This task shows you how to trim geometrical elements:
Trimming Two Elements
|
|
Create two intersecting lines. |
|
-
Click Trim
in the Operations toolbar.
Trim options are now displayed in the Sketch tools
toolbar. The Trim All Elements option is the default option
.
-
Select the first line.
-
Position the cursor on the element to be trimmed.
The second element is highlighted too, and both lines are trimmed.
-
Position the cursor on the same first element.
The first element will be trimmed at the location where you click for the
second time. The location of the relimitation depends on the location of
the cursor.
-
Click when you are satisfied with the relimitation of the
two lines.

-
In multi-selection mode, no extrapolation is
done by trimming command.
-
If you trim an element created from a
projection or an intersection, then this element's extremities are not
constrained anymore to follow the extremities from the element they are
issued from.
-
If the extremity point of the trimmed line is
constrained, or if the extremity point of the trimmed line is a
geometrical element (not a construction element), then a coincidence
constraint will be created between this point and the trimmed line.

Trimming One Element
This task shows you how to trim just one element. Create two intersecting lines. |
|
|
-
Click Trim
.
-
Click the Trim First Element option
.
-
Select the first line.
|
|
-
Position the cursor to the second line.
The first line selected is trimmed.
-
Position the cursor on the same first element.
The first element will be trimmed at the location of the second position.
The location of the relimitation depends on the location of the cursor.
-
Click when you are satisfied with the relimitation of the
first line.
