Bulk Trim?

Post by Troy96 » Fri Apr 11, 2025 2:49 pm

Is there a feature in QCAD that can 'bulk' trim lines similar to the trim feature in VCarve Pro? See below:

As you can see, this saves a lot of time in trimming lines like this.
Any input as appreciated!

You can use Modify > Break out Segment with the Line Selection Mode to trim away all the segments intersected by a line. The line is indicated by its start and end point.
