Good day forum, does vcarve pro have a way to slice an object apart to toolpath each piece(s)? The trim tool does not do the job that I am looking for.
Thank you in advance
Splice tool?

Re: Splice tool?
Here’s where some clarification is needed. The thread title mentions splice while the body mentions slice. There are pretty much opposite to each other.
Also trim suggests a 2D method while posters so far have presumed a 3D model.

Re: Splice tool?
If it's 2D then the Explode Vectors tool on the Gadgets menu (assuming non-desktop version) and/or node editing is what you need.
Really needs a lot more information as to what you're wanting to do and whether it's vectors or components or both that you're working with.
