firstdefence Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Select the node tool, and select both nodes and the points I've indicated, then click on break curve on the node tool contact menu, you should end up with a line and a semi circle. Oh you may have to convert the semi circle shape to curves first. remove horizontal line.afdesign Saved with history so you can jog back and forth in the history panel to see the process.

There is a workaround by using symbols, so just replacing the shape in a symbol can replace all shapes of that symbols instances.
