MakerSolid Documentation Version 1.5.2

Sketch tool

Extend

Lengthen a supported sketch curve endpoint to the next valid boundary intersection.

Purpose

Lengthen a supported sketch curve endpoint to the next valid boundary intersection.

Where to find it

While editing a sketch, open Modify and choose Extend.

Selection

  • Tap near the endpoint that should grow toward the next intersection.

Steps

  1. Choose Extend.
  2. Tap near the intended endpoint and inspect the extended result.

Options

Endpoint choice

The tap location chooses the end and direction; the nearest supported future intersection sets the new endpoint.

Result

The selected line or supported curve is extended to the resolved boundary.

Editing

Undo, Trim back the extension, or move its endpoint with Edit Points.

Troubleshooting

Nothing extends.

Tap closer to the intended endpoint and ensure another supported curve lies ahead as an intersection boundary.
