Boolean (3D)

Union, subtract or intersect of two bodies: holes, cut-outs, complex parts.

How to add

Select two bodies and choose the operation in the Parts menu.

Properties

Operation
Union, Subtract (A − B) or Intersect.
Position of B
Offset and rotation of body B relative to the result.
Split into parts
Returns the original bodies A and B.

Tips

  • Subtracting a cylinder from a box gives a hole.
  • The source bodies are kept, so the operation can be undone with Split into parts.
