I am trying to design a clock.  It has 6  seven segment led. I have imported the PCB.  On the front side of the box i would like to make 6 cut such that the led are only visible. If i select the display it i need to make 9 selection for each led. segment. How could I do this easily ?

Hi @s.kishore1998 ,

You can try the following steps:

First create a new sketch, project the boundaries of the 6 LEDs onto this new sketch:

Now you get

Then you extrude the sketch and cut the clock case:

The result would be

This is also why you use Fusion over Eagle for cases exactly like this. (pun intended)
