Hello,

I need to use the Trim by code option, I create lines in a Sketch line1, line2, line3 and line4.
I need to trim line 4 from the end of the line to the intersection with line 2
Code:
Accepted solutions (2)
PlanarSketch sketch = default(PlanarSketch);
sketch = [Link]([Link][3]);
TransientGeometry tg = default(TransientGeometry); Solution 1
tg = [Link];
Line1 = [Link](tg.CreatePoint2d(0, 10), tg.CreatePoint2d(-20, 10)); Solution 2
Line2 = [Link](tg.CreatePoint2d(-20, 10), tg.CreatePoint2d(-15, 0));
Line3 = [Link](tg.CreatePoint2d(0, 10), tg.CreatePoint2d(0, 5));
Line4 = [Link](tg.CreatePoint2d(0, 5), tg.CreatePoint2d(-20, 5));

Hi,
i think there is no API Methode for Trim in Sketch.
Correct me if im wrong.
But you can Create new line using the Intersection Points.
The Result is similary

Change the SketchLine into LineSegment2d.
Inventor 2022 Help | LineSegment2d Object | Autodesk
Here a sample in [Link]
Dim oLineSegment01 As LineSegment2d
oLineSegment01 = [Link]
C# maybe
LineSegment2d oLineSegment01 =[Link]

Here is a sample code for something like Trim Function
1 var pick1 = [Link]([Link], "Pick line 1");
2 var pick2 = [Link]([Link], "Pick line 2");
3 SketchLine line1 = pick1 as SketchLine;
4 SketchLine line2 = pick2 as SketchLine;
5
6 var intersectWithCurve = [Link]([Link]);
7 foreach (var o in intersectWithCurve)
8 {
9 if (o is Point2d pt2d)
10 {
11 var geometricConstraints = [Link];
12 var line1StartSketchPoint = [Link];
13 var line1EndSketchPoint = [Link];
14
15 var distanceFromStart = [Link](pt2d);
16 var distanceFromEnd = [Link](pt2d);
17
18 if (distanceFromStart > distanceFromEnd)
19 {
20 [Link](pt2d);
21 [Link](line1EndSketchPoint as SketchEntity, line2 as SketchEntity);
22 }
23 else
24 {
25 [Link](pt2d);
26 [Link](line1StartSketchPoint as SketchEntity, line2 as SketchEntity);
27 }
28 }
29 }
