Hi Guys,

 

How do I restore this beam without trimming after the joint box was deleted?

 

Thanks

Delete the feature lines.

 

You can turn on the features with using this:

Thanks @Jonathan3891 for the quick help

 

so I used that tool it shows more grips, but when I pulled from one of it it did not stretch forward.

 

I want it to be stretched as the blue arrows shown

Double click on the beam itself then go to Display Type tab and check Features. You should be able to see all the features related to this beam

Yes, but it did not restore its original shape without the trims unless I delete it and create new

Not sure what do you want to achieve exactly. As your joint box as been deleted,  you can't control the macro anymore.

So, with 'display features' enabled, you can delete all the features [green frame] that you don't want anymore as shown in this screenshot then stretch the beam as you want to. Hope this help 🙂

FYI, green plane/frame shows all the cuts you made with the macro or manually.

You selected "Exact" instead of "Features". Change it to "Features" and you'll see the feature lines you need to delete.
