Using Split Entities

To split a sketch entity:

In an open sketch, click Split Entities (Sketch toolbar) or Tools > Sketch Tools > Split Entities.
The pointer changes to .
Click the sketch entity at the location where you want the split to occur.
The sketch entity splits into two entities, and a split point is added between the two sketch entities.
