michaeloureiro Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hello, I´ve just found myself with a the pain staking task of triming an infinite number of lines inbetween two parallel ones. Is there an easier way to do this? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBullseye74 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 EXTRIM should do the job You might have to join the 2 parallel lines at the end to make it one poly line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GE13579 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Use a crossing window on the outer parts of the lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 are you trying to pick each in turn? If so having selected your trim edges, click above your first line to be trimed, then drag lightly left and down and click below your last item to be trimmed. AutoCAD isn't very good if you pan during your selection so if the parallel lines are far enough apart it is best to do this with everything on the screen.

michaeloureiro Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 dbroada, that´s the problem, the lines are too big to cross select everthing, if there was a way to just select the two lines and trim everthing inside...
