Solids can be intersected with other solids, surfaces, or curves, and 2D curves can be intersected with each other. Select one set, run Boolean Intersection, then select the other set. Objects to be intersected are treated as 2 different sets. Closed curves can also have other closed curves nested inside of them to form hollow 2D regions:Ĭombine objects together, only keeping areas contained by all objects. Select and delete any pieces you don't want to keep (result shown slightly separated for illustration):īoolean difference also works between curves that are all on one common plane. This will slice the solid into multiple pieces. It is also possible to difference a solid with an open non-solid surface.

Here is an example of a solid being differenced by a set of 2D curves:Īnother example of solid/curve Booleans - here the solid is being cut by line segments, resulting in smaller sliced pieces each of which is a solid (result shown slightly separated here for illustration): It is not necessary to extrude 2D cutting shapes into solids if you want to cut all the way through. It is also possible to difference a solid by a 2D curve directly, creating a solid as the final result. It is also possible to cut a 2D curve using another 2D curve.Įxample of Boolean difference between solids: For example, a solid can be cut by another solid, surface, or a 2D curve. Select the objects to be cut first, then run Boolean Difference and select the cutting objects.ĭifferent kinds of objects can interact with each other. Cut an object by subtracting another object from it.
