So let's talk about some other new behavior.
00:06
If I had a grid pattern, for example,
00:10
and I wanted to trim specific areas out.
00:14
I can type in the trim command
00:16
and immediately if I press and hold my left button,
00:21
I can use a lasso
00:26
to trim out a specific grid area
00:30
based on where the lasso goes through.
00:37
And just like that, you can see I easily trimmed those areas out
00:43
if I use the extend command again,
00:46
notice how I can do the same thing here
00:51
where I'm using a lasso
00:53
to extend specific lines,
00:60
right click
01:01
enter
01:02
and those lines have been extended.
01:05
So that's what the new options look like
01:09
when it comes to the
01:11
trim
01:12
and extend commands.
