Clipping Symbols


RussU

Question

HI all,

 

Maybe someone has a suggestion about how to do this, but I would love to see a symbol clipping/slicing feature added.

While you can scale them to be shorter, that deforms the detail. I'd like to be able to put a clipping pane, or slice so that the symbol still appears in part counts etc,

 

So for example, if I have a ply board run of 30', I can laydown 4 full 8' symbols to make a 32' long run, and then clip off the last 2'. That way the part count will still read as 4 needed, but the geometry shows 30' long.

 

Any ideas (I don't want to use symbol scaling, as it squashes the detail, rather than cutting it off, as in real-world)

 

Thanks in advance
