Cut against an Element (shorten only)
Command - PrB_AddPrPlCut
This command allows us to shorten a profile against another part. The new end cut of the profile will be aligned to the other part.
On activating this command, you will be prompted to: Select the plates or beams you would like to cut.
You will be further prompted to indicate: The cutting plate or profile.
The profile or plate will immediately be cut to the main face of the cutting plate/profile.
This tool will cut against the web of I or U shapes.
If you need to cut to another face, then use the Manually select cutting plane option in the Add cut to macro tool.
