disjoin vectors

Post by Stephen50 »

I understand you are able to undo a joined vector upon completion of the joining. However, I've encountered a situation that I'm unable to resolve the joining other deleting the joined vectors and starting over. An example follows I created a two vertical tool paths each .25 wide and 6.0 height. I then created a horizontal tool path of the same dimensions and subsequently joined those vectors. I finished my file and proceeded to cut it out only to determine, I should have made my tool path .28 rather than .25 during the initial design. Any suggestion how to solve my dilemma?

Have you tried node edit and cut the vector(s) where they join? Dale

I think there is an explode vectors gadget around. That might work.

The Explode Vectors gadget is part of the standard install with V9.
