trim and extend

Post by Mr Confused » Wed Mar 09, 2016 3:20 pm

Something i have trouble with is trimming construction lines back after they have served their purpose. it seams where two lines cross is sometimes recognised and sometimes not. especially when a radius is involved.
is there a way to add an officially sanctioned intersection point manually if the program for some reason fails to do so?
also extend seams to have the same problem, that is how the long construction line comes about in the first place,
when extend refuses to agree that it is going to intersect then a long line is inserted with the intention to trim back but alas :?
what am i doing wrong with this?
