The Boolean command performs Boolean operations (Union, Intersect, Subtract) on closed objects to create new geometry combinations. This is essential for complex shape creation.
🔹 How to Use
- Ensure closed objects: Boolean operations require completely closed geometry.
- Activate the command: Select Boolean tool or press B.
- Choose operation mode: Select Union (default), Intersect, or Subtract.
- Select objects: Choose the objects for the Boolean operation.
- Complete operation: New geometry is created based on the selected operation.
🔹 Boolean Operations
- Union: Merges two objects into one combined shape.
- Intersect: Creates geometry only where objects overlap.
- Subtract: Removes overlapping areas between objects.
- Winding: Advanced option based on object direction (may be removed in future versions).
🧠 Tips
- Closed geometry required: All objects must be completely closed for Boolean operations.
- Union default: System starts in Union mode for combining shapes.
- Complex shapes: Essential tool for creating complex geometry from simple shapes.
- Object direction: CCW (counter-clockwise) = outside, CW (clockwise) = inside for Winding option.
