You can convert trimmed entities into construction geometry or ignore
construction geometry when trimming. This improves the handling of construction geometry for
2D and 3D sketches.
Previously, the Trim Entities
tool trimmed all entities, which often
caused sketches to become under defined.
Click to open the Trim Entities
PropertyManager.
Keep
trimmed entities as construction geometry |
Converts the trimmed entities into
construction geometry. |
Ignore
trimming of construction geometry |
Leaves construction geometry
unaffected when you trim entities. |
These options maintain dimensional relations to the trimmed entities. They might maintain
geometric relations, depending on the trimming conditions.
If you select both options, solid entities are converted to construction
geometry and existing construction geometry is unaffected.
