Allow Shape Builder to close edited path, but keep the one below opened
Hi there!
So, the thing is that - when I have 2 intersecting open filled paths, I really want to remove the outside path of one path using Shape Builder tool. But I want the second path to stay open. and the first path to become closed.
It may sound as a picky request. But I struggle with this issue everyday, like, 20+ times.

Yep, I see what you mean.
With the option checked, Shape Builder closes the unchanged path below (the one you want to keep opened).
But if you disable the option, the tool won’t affect the shape while clicked (OK, we can just drag), but it also won’t close the affected shape!
The thing you want is to close the affected shape, but don’t close the one below. Makes sense!
