 *Break lines* are a technique used in technical drawing 
 for indicating
 where an object extends beyond what is drawn in the current
 diagram. It is visually clear since it uses a shape that
 is obviously not a part of the object's own shape
-(wiggly freehand line), see Fig. [ref-fignasa]_.

 We apply this technique by drawing the buoys as 
-non-photorealistically torn-off pieces of the target document.

+To allow for fluid animation,
 the shapes of the break lines need to be carefully designed.
 
 The shape of a torn edge is tied to its location on
