Issue:

When you used the Trim command and the cutting edge was a block, you were not able to trim all of the polylines correctly.

Solution:

Solution

This problem has been seen in cases with lightweight or lwpolylines.

To work around this issue, you can use the CONVERTPOLY command to convert the existing lightweight polylines to heavy polylines so that all of the new polylines will be heavy. You can also change the PLINESTYLE variable to 0, so that all of the new polylines will be created in the older style of polyline.
