Trim Guidelines
Overview
Trim Guidelines indicates the desired trimline shape on the socket. Use control points to adjust the trimline, mirror changes between the medial and lateral sides when symmetry is needed, and save the trim guideline as a template for reuse.
When applying a Trim Guideline template, riiForm merges the anterior and “ears” from the template with the posterior shelf shape. If the template must be adjusted slightly to fit the current socket shape, riiForm displays a notification.
