Activating the command:
-
Draw
Modify Extend
- If lines or construction objects are selected, right-click and choose Extend.
Extend will lengthen one object to where it is crosses another object. The objects can be lines or construction objects or a mix of both. When using a mix, the Selection Select setting will need to be changed in the middle of the operation. Also, the items must be in the same plane.
Follow the prompts in the status bar to work the extend command, as follows:
- After you select the Extend command, select the object that will be used as the extend to object. This is also referred to as the boundary item.
- Next, select the object that will be extended. The objects must physically cross for the command to succeed. The boundary object is not considered to be infinitely long. If the object being extended is an arc, you are prompted for which end of the arc to extend.
- Repeat the extend command for additional objects or press <Esc> to exit the command.
Tip: To trim or extend two lines so that they meet at the same point, create a fillet between the two lines with a radius of 0.
