View Full Version : Picked lines in sketches not splitting or trimming?

Anybody notice that lines picked from other elements in sketches the the trim and split commands have no effect? Is this just how it is now or is there a new setting I am not aware of?

Update:
Ok it looks like this only happens when i pick lines from a imported cad plan but works fine when picking revit elements. Never mind, false alarm...

Update2:
Ok its doing it again, but I think I know why: I am picking an arc, and when I do it generates a spline instead of a new arc, which cannot be trimmes or split. That's a little frustrating. I guess this is new with 8.1 when we got the pick spline feature. I guess I will copy and paste sketch lines instead of trying to pick lines.

I'm not sure I understand... I've never had any problems picking lines from arcs and trimming them.

Well I am fairly sure it is a spline issue now. I thought they were arcs (someone else modeled it, I would have used arcs, they didn't) and I could get a trim or split to work. mystery solved.
