Description

The Draft Split tool attempts to split an existing wire at a specified edge or point.

The counterpart to this tool is the Draft Join operation.

Usage

  1. Press the Draft Split button or press S then P keys.
  2. Click on a wire where you want to split it

If the wire is open, you will create two wires, each ending at the point at which you clicked. If the wire is closed, the edge which you clicked will be turned into its own open wire, and the remainder will convert into an open wire.

Options

There are no options for this tool. Either it works with the selected objects or not.

Scripting
