About the Cutter Tool

T-HFND-004-007

The Cutter tool lets you cut out part of a drawing so that you can transform it, copy it or delete it. You can use it to scale or reposition the portion of a flattened or bitmap drawing. You can also use it to trim strokes using a single gesture.

The Cutter tool can be used on intersecting brush strokes to cut the excess artwork and create a corner.

The Cutter tool can be used on intersecting pencil lines to cut the excess artwork and create a corner. You can then merge the pencil lines to create a single shape.
