Trimming ARCs and LINEs
I'm trying to draw a developed view of a small sheet metal case.
How can I trim the little half- and quarter-arcs in the folding corners?

Re: Trimming ARCs and LINEs
Thanks. I looked at it but I have no idea as to
The attached screenshots are showing what I would like to achieve. Not that you think that I already managed to do so . I used Gimp to edit the screenshot to obtain the result.
- what menu topic I should choose between D2, B2 and AX
- which elements to click at which points
- whether to select an element first or not

Re: Trimming ARCs and LINEs
I think the problem why I couldn't get ahead was that the line shape is a polygon. Can I resolve a PL into lines?

Re: Trimming ARCs and LINEs
Are you using QCAD Professional or the free QCAD Community Edition?
Re: Trimming ARCs and LINEs
OK, thanks. I'll move your posts to the appropriate forum for the QCAD Community Edition.
Re: Trimming ARCs and LINEs
Thanks. Wasn't aware that I had been posting in the Qcad Pro section of the forum.

All the hassle I had and why I could not solve my problem intuitively with the suggested D2/B2 commands was, that my object was a PL (polyline) !
Thus my questsion in another thread how to resolve a PL into LI segments.
