    Default Trimming around a circle

    Hello experts! I have a question in regards to the Trim command in AutoCAD 2017. I am trying to trim a line extending from a circle; however, when I zoomed in I saw that a small segment is still protruding from the circle's edge. How can I completely trim the entire line extending from the circle? Please help me resolve this situation. Thank you in advance!

    force a REGEN after you zoom in. Is the line still extending past the circle?

    Never trust the graphics screen.

    Measure the distance from the END of the line, PERP to the circle. It will be 0.0000000000 (unless you are working with coordinates in the tens of millions or more)
