Trimming Objects

Trimming objects cuts away the parts of objects that are outside a selected range.

The range does not have to be within the object boundaries. If the affected objects are completely within the range, the command has no function.

1. Select the objects to be trimmed.

2. Then select a range. The range does not have to be selected directly over the objects, all selected objects will be trimmed to the length of the range regardless of their track.

3. Choose Trim objects from the menu Object > Edit objects or from the context menu of an object or the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + T.

4. All selected objects that have extended beyond the range boundaries now start and end at the range boundaries.
