: TRIM : Change:Merge Trim SetsShortcut
: NoneThis command merges the trim history of the target surface or trim curve-set.
If you intersect or blend a previously trimmed surface, DeskArtes automatically combines or merges the new trim curves with the old ones.
The old and new trim curves are also stored separately, in so-called trim history sets which appear below the surface with a name beginning with ‘..Trim/’. Each of these history sets contains the results of just one intersection/blending command. The last part of the name of the history set in the Object Window show which "other" surface produced the trimming. These are combined together into the trim set below the surface called ‘-> Trim/merge’ which actually trims the surface.
There may be occasions, such as when you have been manually modifying the trim curves, when you want to ensure that the trim curves are correctly combined. The command TrimÞChange: Merge Trim Sets merges the history sets into one again.
For instance, if you wish to undo an earlier intersection command, select the corresponding history set, delete it, and combine the rest with TrimÞChange: Merge Trim Sets.
