Extend

Modify | Trim | Extend | [Extend Dynamically]

This modification tool allows a line or arc to be shortened or extended in the same plane by dragging the pointing device to a suitable position.

A specific extension distance can be provided by selecting the Extend to Distance option.

In the example below, the angled center line is being extended beyond the edge of the outer circle. The planar geometry of the line is maintained.
