Hello

 

 

I'd like to decrease the length of lines by a fixed distances by shortening the line at the end. Is there a way to do that?

 

 

Regards,

David right on the Snipper of course

 

But as I just noticed last week, it's not obvious how to snip from the end.

 

To Snip from the start you can just enter the number in the Starting Location, but the Ending Locaiton is measure from the start so you need something like this:

 

@Length()-250

Thank you guys! The snipper will do eactly what I need.

 

 

In fact, somtimes I need to cut  off the line at the start en somtimes at the end. If I need to cut at the end I will probably use the orientor first to switch start- and endpoints.
