"Intersect With" Problem
As depicted, I need to trim the face of the tray (curved geometry) to be parallel with the angled face. The cutting plane and the tray are components. When I select both and use “intersect with...

Intersect faces always puts the new edges in the current edit context, so in this case they are loose in the model. You could select them, cut, open the component, and paste in place. Read full topic

This method erases the top of the tray and still leaves cut marks, as seen here: Screen Shot 2021-04-04 at 2.41.57 PM3578×1142 860 KB Read full topic

It should not. You are missing something. you’ve erased an edge or more that makes up the tray surface. OR the top of the tray was not completely cut and removing edges beyond the cut face erased the...

Still having “Intersect With Selection” problems. Managed to trim the insulation, but the vent (top and bottom) produce missing surfaces. Here is the model with the cutting plane and insulation and...

I was thinking of “intersect” for the vent. Usually do it, one component at time. Anyway for the insulation, since it is a simple form, intersect isn’t the simple way to do it. You push pull to the...

You just have to move from the endpoint of the edge. The cursor just snapped to where it was at the beginning of the recording. You don’t need to run the cursor along the edge. Read full topic

pbacot: The vent wasn’t a closed shape. You need to add edges at the ends of the cut, either before you delete the cutting rectangle face or after, if you want a face at the end of the vent. To...

Do not delete the new edges that form the cut face of the object. Deleting those edges causes the connected faces to be deleted. Read full topic

Ok, hate to answer my own question, but … I gave the cutting plane some thickness (1/64"), created a solid. Now, I have two solids. Then use the “Trim” tool (Solid Tools). But, the order of selection...

I confess that I have not read all replies in detail, so the following may not make sense depending on exactly how the intersection geometry was generated. Are there are edges shared between the...

You made it work, that’s the main thing! I made my suggestion, the whole procedure. Fixing the missing face was part of that process, just add the edges that were needed to make the face. You can make...
