Intersected object becomes a closed shape

Postby nadarajan » Tue Dec 14, 2010 1:55 pm

I want to create rounded corners by making intersction of a rounded corner rectangle and a normal recrangle. The problem is, when I make the intersection, all the sides of the intersected object gets the same stroke lines. I want the stroke only for the rounded side and the cut side should be open. Please let me know how to do it.

Thanks

The union, diffrance, intersect, exclusion and division tools all create solid closed path objects.

To achive what you want to do I would use the cut path comand and deleat the unwanted line segments.

Alternativly I would node edit the rectangle path->object to path, then ( :tool_node: ) and use the deleat segment options.
