Hello.

I am working on a large file which contains many shapes which share their borders. Only the outline will be printed (there is no fill to any of the shapes). It is very important that two shapes sharing path overlap precisely otherwise printed stroke will not have the same thickness/shape.  

How can I shape the path of two elements at the same time (so the path stays overlapping)?

I know I could break the path of one shape, remove overlapping piece and only modify the remaining path of the second shape. This however takes many steps to accomplish (not a problem for a small piece but could take ages with large files; imagine jigsaw puzzles cut pattern"). 

How can I somehow "glue" both shapes and modify mutual path with simple drag method typical for single paths?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards,

Marcin

Welcome to the forum tromarov :)

Unfortunately, I can't think of way without using a Fill, Boolean operation, transparent mask layer or breaking the path to achieve the effect you require, sorry.
