Description

The Trimex tool trims or extends Draft Lines and Draft Wires so that they end at an intersection with another line or edge.

The Trimex tool also extrudes faces created from closed wires. In this sense, it's similar to Part Extrude and to PartDesign Pad.

How to use

  1. Select a wire you wish to trim or extend, or select a face you wish to extrude.
  2. Press the Draft Trimex button, or press T then R keys.
  3. Click a point in the 3D view.

Options

  • pressing SHIFT will constrain you to the segment currently being trimmed or extended
  • pressing ALT will invert the direction of the trimming
