Hello, I have a question about a part that I want to remove from my existing line.

I have placed a frame of Google maps in my Lightburn. A blue frame in a green frame. I would like to remove the lines marked in red. The orange line replaces the lines that are being removed. Can anyone tell me how to remove these lines in my existing line?

thanks

Dimaxo

You need to make your Shape edible and erase the segments and nodes you don’t want.  
If you are new to Lightburn, I highly recommend going through the most basic instructions from the documentation, they are well written and supplied by many videos on the tube.

You would do it with node editing.
