The Line Trim mode splits 2D objects, NURBS curves/surfaces, solids, and viewports along a screen plane cutting line; it keeps a specified side, and trims away the other side.

To split and trim an object along a cutting line:

Click the tool and mode, and then click the All Objects or Currently Selected Objects mode.

Draw a line through the object to split; the object to be split is highlighted.

An arrow points to the side to be kept. Click to indicate which side of the split line to keep; the other side is trimmed away.

The object is split by the line, and the indicated side remains.
