Vectric Error Message Says I Can't Cannot Clear Trim Objects

Overview

This video explains the “improper argument” error message that appears when using the Trim Objects tool in Vectric Aspire. The error simply indicates that there are no vectors available for the software to trim, so it has nothing to do.

Steps

1. Open the Design tab in Vectric Aspire.
2. Select the Trim Objects icon.
3. Choose any trim option from the dialog.
4. Click the Clear button.
5. If no vectors are present or selected, the error message appears.
6. To avoid the error, ensure appropriate vectors exist and are selected before attempting to clear trims.

Key Points / Warnings

• The “improper argument” message is harmless; it means there are no vectors to trim.
• It does not indicate a problem with your file or software.
• Always verify that vectors are present and selected before using Trim Objects > Clear.
• The error can occur regardless of which trim option is selected.
