To cut into halves

This dialog box is used to cut shapes in half. Halving can occur vertically or horizontally.
The dialog box is opened by the Halve function in the Edit menu.

It is important to halve in order to avoid different halves deriving from rounding errors with symmetrical shapes.
If several shapes are present in a file, all shapes are halved based on the settings.

Make the following settings in this dialog box:
