# Trim Profile Member to Solid

## Launch the Tool

This tools requires SketchUp Pro because it uses the Solid Tools API features that are only available inside SketchUp Pro.

## Ensure that Profile Members are Solids

The Profile Member must be a solid. Any Profile Member created from a 2D face (not a polyline) will automatically be a solid. However, it is highly recommended to use the Solid Inspector SketchUp extension (by ThomThom) to check for solid objects and to help fix any non-solid objects. This extension is available on the SketchUp Extension Warehouse.

## Select a Solid Object to trim to

The object does NOT have to be Profile Member but it must be a solid.

As you hover the mouse, the object wil highlight to indicate that is a valid solid.

## Click the end of a Profile Member to Trim

As you hover the mouse over a Profile Member, it will become highlighted indicating that it is a valid solid.

Click on the end of a Profile Member to select it.

Continue clicking other Profile Members ends for trimming if desired.

Press ESC to reset the tool.

## Congratulations! You just trimmed a Profile Member to a solid!
