=='''Line Splitter'''==
{{DMonly}}
:For use with the [https://wiki.roll20.net/Dynamic_Lighting Dynamic Lights] feature on Roll20. It adds the Cutter Icon to the Brush tool on the Toolbar on Roll20.
:Often when making lighting boundaries over complicated maps the polygon lines are long and complicated. This tool allows you to break those longer lines into [[File:Toolbar_-_brush_Snip.PNG|thumb]]smaller segments.


<br/>
==='''Instructions '''(How to use it)===
:As shown in the image above.
:#Go to the Dynamic Lighting layer
:#Zoom the view into the area where you want to make the change
:#Choose the Line Splitter tool <need image>
:#Place the center of the crosshairs on the dynamic lighting line you wish to break.  ('''NOTE''': if you are not on the line ''nothing ''will happen.)
:#The line (if correctly targeted) will break at that point.

==='''Use Case Example''' (Why/When to use it)===
:Imagine having a map with secret doors or something destructive ... (a Passwall spell/disintegrate/explosives), which necessitates the modification of the established walls or in the case of secret doors where differing lines could show the door because of misalignment of the line - of the (if you've ever done it) attempting to grab that secret door.

----
:: To make it easier to target the dynamic lighting boundaries try to zoom in as far as possible.
:: When making Dynamic Lighting boundary lines use thicker lines, and lines that are in contrast to the map layer. ( I suggest red, blue, or bright green).
