OK I need to find a fast way to break lines at intersections. I had a macro that did it by obarion but he stopped making it so I need a new one or a trick to do this fast. The sample is a simplified version of what I am doing.
SO is someone could point me to a macro/script for 2019 or tell me a simple solution that would be great.446413
Thank you

I think Oberon still offers the macro. Is this it?

I have it but does not work on 2019.
Thanks

I've never done a 'break at intersection', can you explain the end goal?

Kev it is just that in the example where the lines cross I need them broken some of the parts can be deleted.

Craig,

Have you tried using virtual segment delete tool?

Craig,

I tried and could not make it work

Can basically what it is that the macro will cause anywhere there's an intersection the lines to be broke and then you can delete what you need or leave the other parts it's just a fast way of breaking things apart

I still don't know the 'end goal' ;) --

so maybe this will help--

The end goal is more complicated than what you have. We use it for custom work. Just need the macro. Tganks

I think this is what he's after. Maybe too large of a break.

No I just want to break the vector lines so I can delete different parts as needed. I do not want to have to create nodes at each intersection ad then go back and break each one apart. I am now looking for an old x7 corel in my office and I will just create that part of the drawings and import it into the new art.

I'd like to see a sample if you can post it.

Easier way might be to convert to DWG/DXF and use a program like Turbocad and do what you need to do and then bring back in to Corel and convert back to a Corel file.
