Trim between two nodes

@b77 said in Trim between two nodes:
It's just that I thought highlighting the segment somehow would have been better.
But I can't think of an elegant way to highlight the segment without making things look more busy than they already are when in node editing (with so many nodes and Bézier handles).TBH, I just checked AI - it highlights the whole path (not wonderful really !) So, your idea of placing an X or as is, an arrow/triangle will work just fine I think ?
That way, everything will remain the same for mode editing etc.Neil

well for me where also enough to set that Triangle
could highlight that segment in complementary color be a way ?

TBH, that would be nice, but adds icing on the cake
I'd be happy with leaving the triangle - knowing that I was about to hit delete and remove it all anyway Neil
-
you right, extended my post above
to set that triangle alone would fit it for me
-
@Subpath and @Igull
It's OK with me to use just the triangle mark for both node placement and segment highlight.
-
Is it possible to implement this feature, using the shape editor tool, click a segment and hit backspace/delete to delete that segment rather than delete the whole object ?
TIA

It is in the backlog.

@VectorStyler I was searching for the easiest way to delete segment and found this thread. There is a simple way to delete segment in AD with node tool holding CTRL and click will delete the segment.
Example in AD

@Jayanta-Das It is in the backlog for 1.2

@Igull are you wanting the option to remove a segment entirely, leaving an open path?
If this gets implemented, would it take away the current "click a segment/node and hit backspace/delete to delete the node and click backspace/delete a second time to delete the whole object"?
I had advocated for this current option mentioned above and would like to be sure it's still an option in VS going forward as i use it quite often to quickly remove things

Example in ADThis looks like a great solution - glad it will be in 1.2!

Yes, that's correct.

No, that would still stand - I also like the idea of hitting backspace/delete a second time to delete the complete object.
IIRC, in AI, selecting the segment then hitting delete, deletes the segment, but leaves the two adjacent nodes highlighted - hitting delete again would delete the complete object as it has both ends of it's vector selected.Neil
