      <p class="para_topic">The Mold Trim Management dialog uses two selection steps to perform the Trim Process procedures: Target Bodies and Tool Sheets.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Target Bodies Selection Step</div>
      <p class="para_division">In the Target Bodies selection step, you can select the Sheet Trim and UnTrim dialog options:</p>
      <div class="title_division">Sheet Trim</div>
      <p class="para_division">Select Sheet Trim to trim the target body with a molding surface. This option uses linked geometry, which results in larger files. Larger files increase update times. </p>
      <div class="title_division">Un-Trim</div>
      <p class="para_division">Select UnTrim to remove Mold Trims from selected bodies.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Tool Sheets Selection Step</div>
      <p class="para_division">In the Tool Sheets selection step, you use the Trim Part and Trim Surface dialog options. </p>
      <div class="title_division">Trim Part</div>
      <p class="para_division">Use Trim Part &nbsp;to specify which file contains the surface that will be used to trim the target body. By default, the trim part will be used. You can add alternate components to Trim Part using &nbsp;functions on the Trim Component tab.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Trim Surface</div>
      <p class="para_division">Use Trim Surface to specify which surface from the previously selected Trim Part will be used to process the selected target body. Each trim part may have multiple Trim Sheets. Select Faces lets you directly select any faces which will be geometry-linked to the target body component and used to trim the target body. The Select Faces method allows a minimum number of faces to be selected to economize on file size.</p>
