Dividing Closed Paths

Divide closed geometry such as circles and rectangles.

Closed paths are divided similarly to open paths.

  1. Sketch a closed path.
  2. In the drawing area, select the path to be divided. If the path is a form edge, press the Ctrl key to select both sides of a circle, or each side of a polygon.
