Thank you! best tutorial in entire yt in this topic!

[@GraphicsWay]

Glad to hear that. Thank you.

HELLO! I would like to tell the easier and faster version for this! (Thanks to this video too, I learned how to find it).
1. Create the shape
2. Object > Path > Outline Stroke
3. Press the Eraser (Shift+E) and just click the parts you want to delete.
Hope it helps!

[@LPSMelli]

Thank you so much😭

Personally, I would have gone back to your original way, except after using minus front to subtract the rectangle, I’d use the Direct Selection tool to select and delete the bottom two anchor points of the rectangle cutout. Then all that would remain is the stroke circle with a broken open path.

[@notifier2Demo]

You're not cutting a stroke. You're cutting a path.

[@GraphicsWay]

Outline stroke not outline path.

[@ardemrudell3038]

Exactly! We need a tutorial on how to cut a stroke without outlining it.

[@GraphicsWay]

You can't.

[@denisestorck4384]

[@merajtv1789]

its not remaining as a stroke. You made it shape. If you used shape builder tool , the stroke remained as a stroke after cut. Thanks.

[@GraphicsWay]

Not correct ! For example when you make a stroke and after that you go to object menu then Expand the stroke will be changed to shape.
