Menu : TRIM

Command: Intersect:Trim with Curve

Shortcut : None

This command trims a surface with a 3D curve. To execute the command, the 3D curve should be chosen as the target object. The command then asks for the surface to be indicated by graphic picking. At the end of the command's execution, it asks which part of the surface to keep (just like the command TRIMÞIntersect:Surface.)

The 3D curve can be of any representation but should be closed. Also, the 3D curve should be located relatively close to the surface.

A typical way to use the command is first to project (command CURVEÞChange:Project) a separately designed curve onto the surface, after which trimming with it can take place.
