Use a crossing window to select the boundary edges and then right-click or press ENTER to complete that selection. Just select those objects that actually need to be used as cutting or boundary edges. When you select cutting edges or boundary edges, you do not need to select everything. Those are already in the proper location and will not be used to extend or trim other objects. In this particular example, everything is going to be either a boundary edge or a cutting edge, except for the short horizontal line segments. In this example, you will need to change the Edge mode to Extend, but before you can do that, you must first select the objects that will be the boundary or cutting edges. When Edge mode is set to none, you can only trim or extend objects that would actually intersect the boundary or cutting edges. want to be able to turn off the command line but still see the commands. what I'm looking for is the command prompt that appears next to the cursor when a command is entered. The program displays the current modes when you first start the command, and it is important to take note of these settings. Re: commands next to cursor HUD Guess I should clarify a bit. Note that Edge mode is currently set to None. In the command line, the program displays the current settings. On the Home ribbon, in the Modify panel, click the Extend tool.
The TRIM and EXTEND commands are a powerful pair of commands, and you will find many practical, real-world applications for these commands.įor example, you can use TRIM and EXTEND to modify the lines on the left to create the shaft shown on the right.
