Circle Trim

Create a temporary circular cutter and trim sketch geometry against its boundary.

Purpose

Create a temporary circular cutter and trim sketch geometry against its boundary.

Where to find it

While editing a sketch, open Modify and choose Circle Trim.

Selection

  • Place the cutter using its configured Draw Anchor over the geometry to trim.

Steps

  1. Choose Draw Anchor and place the circle.
  2. Set Diameter, preview affected geometry, and tap Apply.

Options

Diameter

Sets the temporary circular cutter size.

ƒ Accepts variables and expressions

Draw Anchor

Chooses which circle-bound point is pinned to the first tap.

Result

Apply trims affected sketch geometry using the circle boundary rather than adding a permanent profile circle.

Editing

Undo the operation or repair the resulting segments with Trim and Extend.

Troubleshooting

The intended segment is not cut.

Reposition or enlarge the cutter so its boundary intersects the target geometry clearly.
