About Manipulating Wires

Trim Wires

Use the Trim Wire command to remove a wire segment and wire tees as required. You can pick on a single wire or draw a fence through multiple wires to trim.

Removes a wire segment and any wire tees or dots. Pick on a single wire, draw a fence, or draw a crossing window to select the wires to trim.

Stretch, Extend, Trim Wires

The Stretch Wire command stretches or trims the end of a wire segment to the nearest wire or in-line component wire connection point.

Select the wire, and the program automatically finds the wire or component in its path.

Bend Wires

The Bend Wire command bends a wire in a right angle and makes three right angle turns to avoid or add geometry.

You can modify the wire defined at a right angle. You can replace the right angle bend while maintaining the original wire connections to the components.

Note: This tool terminates if the bend attempts to connect two different wire networks or if the bend bypasses more than a single right-angle turn.
