ref_value

Selection of the intersection point

At which (virtual) intersection point should the trimming start, in the case of multiple intersection points?

In the Edit mode you are able to get the different possibilities. Please press the middle mouse button in the drawing area. Each button press will switch the display of the object to be trimmed up to another possible intersection point.
You can fix the requested intersection point via pressing the left mouse button in the drawing area.

Two intersecting objects will interrupt and split an object at the intersection points nearest to the pick position or cut it beyond. The original object will be deleted and one or two new effect object(s) created.

You can choose between the automatic trimming via the nearest objects or the explicit input of the intersecting objects (see parameter inputparam).

The automatic determination of the start and end object depends on the orientation of the object to be trimmed.
