    trimming and Joining curvs

    I have been using Rhino for awhile now

    seems like I can join objects in Rhino ..

    but when I import them into CAM software they are separte

    and turning CP on and redrawing and Arc seems time consuming if you have

    many curvs ... any input would be helpful

    Thnks

    Hi Kojak,
    Look at the "rebuild" command.. Joining still keeps the segments and can be seperated (or as in your CAm software, still seperated... Rebuild will make one contiguous curve.. Look for the tolerance option for rebuild.. .

    I use rebuild all the time
    most of the curvs are lofted so I rebuild with minmal UV lines

    I guess this time I was in a hurry
    and just trimed and joined the 2 ...

    I will try it out
