Example 1
The example below shows that the original string has 8 points.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2417″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]To delete a segment on a string, pick the option from the toolbar or menu.
Firstly select the segment to be delete/removed from the string with a left mouse click.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2418″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Once the segment has been accepted, it will be removed/deleted from the string.
This shows that the segment has been deleted; as can be seen, the original string has been split into two different strings.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2419″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Example 2
The second example below shows that there are only 3 points on the string.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2420″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Pick and accept the segment to be deleted.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2421″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The image below shows that the segment has been deleted from the string.
A string has been created at either side of the segment that was deleted. As shown in this example sometimes there is only 1 point remaining after a segment has been deleted and a new 1 point string will remain.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2422″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There are times when a string segment has been deleted accidentally. There are ways to bring the string segment back immediately after it has been deleted.
