Splitting an Edge, Curve or Beam

  1. Click Design > Intersect > Split .
  2. Click the Split Edge tool guide and select the edge, curve, or beam you want to split.
    The edge highlights and the split is previewed with dimensions (length and percent) and a count. The count is the number of pieces the edge will be split into. The default count is two.
  3. Click the point where you want to split.
    The Select Results tool guide is now active, so you can click edges that you don't want to keep.

Example:

Select edges that you don't want to keep as shown on the left of the example. The result after the two straight edges have been removed is shown on the right.
