Trim Command Issue

Rhino
,

Hello,

When using the trim command, a prompt says “Select pressing shift to extend.” Ideally, after extending, I would like to use the extended curve as the cutting object for trimming. However, this doesn’t seem to work as expected.

trim

I think the purpose of having both trim and extend in the same command is to facilitate such operations. Could this functionality be looked into?

please change the category of your topic to Rhino Windows - it s not a scripting issue.

there is the
_connect
command

space will repeat last command

if you work with preselection:

  • preselect curves
  • _trim
  • shift-click to extend
  • space to finish command space to recall trim
  • click on the part you wanted to delete.

hope this helps - kind regards - tom

Hello @Tom_P ,

Thank you for guiding me to the correct category—I’ve updated it to Rhino Windows. I appreciate your detailed workaround with the connect command and trimming process.

I understand the various workarounds, I hoped for a more integrated trim and extend functionality, similar to AutoCAD, for better user experience.
