Vector tools - where is the scissor icon? the one used to trim vectors?

do any one know where it is or whats the substitute here.

also in the two rail sweep, cant I give different heights to the curves - here it seem I sould have a vertical line to get a straight outside edge.

RGDS, You can use the node editing tool to accomplish this. Select the node you want to cut and right click to cut vector or use "c" for the short cut. You can also insert a node then cut it for more precision. On the 2 rail sweep, you can draw the profile to whatever you need, hold the shift key, select the vectors then the profile.

Bryson, thanks for your inputs - but the trim is easier than node editing - anyways this may be included in the next version -
