Translations:Draft Trimex/5/en

From FreeCAD Documentation
  1. Optionally select one object. The object must be a Draft Line, a Draft Wire, a Draft Arc or a Draft Circle (which can only be trimmed). If the selected object is closed it must have its DataMake Face property set to false.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Trimex button.
    • Select the Modification → Trimex option from the menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: T then R.
  3. If you have not yet selected an object: select an object in the 3D view.
  4. The Trimex task panel opens. See Options for more information.
  5. Move the pointer in the 3D view so that the preview matches the desired result. If required use the modifier keys as explained in the Options.
  6. Do one of the following:
    • Pick a point in the 3D view.
    • Enter a Distance or an Angle. The distance is a delta distance. This option does not work if modifier keys are used.
    • Move the pointer over an edge belonging to another object, and click when this edge is highlighted, to trim or extend the selected object using an intersection with the highlighted edge as the new endpoint. When trimming, the projection of the point where the cutting edge is selected onto the object to be trimmed, determines the default result. Note that Draft Snaps can have an undesirable impact here. In some cases it can be useful to turn them off temporarily.
