Hi Armin, just one more note after I read your message bit more carefullly.

I didn't want to give up at this point, so I extended the short line passed the horizontal line and tried to trim at the intersection marked by the red circle in "Trim_01". This creates a point at the intersection. With the remove option checked, the only thing that gets removed is the previously created point, though I have to say the line gets seperated and I am able to remove (delete) the desired section manually. This was V2 Beta, didn't try this one in V1.

It sounds like you may be missing a step in Trim, where you need to select which fragments that you wish to delete or keep by clicking on them.

If you don't select any fragments to remove and then hit Done (or right-click), then all the split-up fragments are kept which is what it sounds you ran into there.

So during that stage where you see that point, click on that piece sticking out down below and then right-click or push Done and it will get trimmed away.
