I want to make the grid fit inside the circle(remove the extra grid outside the circle). How can I achieve that in the simplest way? I have tried almost everything under the path menu but nothing helped.
(The grid was created using the extensions-> render -> grids)
Note: I would prefer a method that can be applied across any shape.
If you only need to hide it visually, duplicate your circle, make sure it's on top of the grid, select both, right-click and select 'Set Clip'.
Alternatively, you can make a clone of the circle instead of a duplicate, if you want it to automatically update when you change the shape of the circle.
If you actually need the underlying geometry gone (for laser-cutting for example), duplicate your circle, make sure it's on top, select both, use 'Path → Cut Path' and then 'Path → Break Apart'. Now you need to manually select and delete all lines outside the circle.
