Trimming Contour Lines

[Emj86]

Hi,

 

This seems such a simple task but I can't execute it. Can anyone please help? I have my contour lines imported from QGIS, on different planes. I want to trim down the contour map to the size of a box in plan view. How can I trim this?

Thanks

@Jeff Prince Can you help with this?  I missed approving Emma's post for a couple of hours.

Was helping via PM, there is a host of issues not related to Vectorworks.

 

The recommended solution was to trim the area in QGiS, export to .shp, then import .shp to vectorworks, finish with modify by record.

 

Trimming or slicing 3D contours in vectorworks is possible, but best done one at a time to avoid lockups.
