Simplified Extend and Trim with EDGEMODE*Applies to: AutoCAD R12, 13, 14, 2000, 2000i, 2002, 2004 and 2005*Normally with extend and trim commands you have to
have your reference object intersect with the objects that you wish to
extend or trim to. If you have EDGEMODE set to a value of 1 you can
extend or trim an object that doesn't intersect through your object.
With EDGEMODE set to 1 you don't have to worry about creating new or
duplicating construction lines in your drawing. It will automatically
locate the nearest object and use it as your extend or trim boundary.
The other value of EDGEMODE is 0, this value will force you to have your
reference object to physically intersect through the object you wish to
extend or trim with.
