Hello I made a circle and drew a line through it and I tried to edit nodes using “t”. It didn’t do anything. Also, it doesn’t seem to allow me to add nodes to circle shapes.

      If you drew the circle using the ‘Create Ellipse’ tool, that will produce what is known as a LightBurn Primitive Shape, which has certain specific attributes known to LightBurn. To node edit a Primitive shape, you must first use ‘Convert to Path’ from the ‘Edit’ menu or right-click and choose from there. :slight_smile:
      Once converted to paths, here is what my test shows using the ‘Trim’ feature as discribed.
