- You may have a situation where you have positioned one region over another,
- and you just want to cut the lower region so that it directly adjoins both
- ends of the overlapping one, with no overlaps. To do this, select the upper
- region, then choose <kbd class="menu">Edit > Separate > Separate
- Under</kbd>. This will split the lower region so that it no longer overlaps
- the upper region at all. <br />
- Here is an example where we start with a short region placed so that it
- overlaps a longer region:
+ When one region is over another, and the lower region has to be cut so that it
+ directly adjoins both ends of the overlapping one, with no overlaps, the <dfn>
+ Separate Under</dfn> tool can be a very efficient time-saver.
+ With the upper region selected, the <kbd class="menu">Edit > Separate > Separate
+ Under</kbd> menu will split the lower region so that it no longer overlaps
+ the upper region at all.
