LWCAD offers two types of boolean operations:
LWCAD offers two types of boolean operations:
Non-destructive booleans
Destructive booleans
Non-destructive Booleans
Non-destructive Booleans
For a parametric object, you can enable a non-destructive Boolean operation when it is attached to another parametric object or LWCAD object.
When booleans are enabled, the child becomes a parent modifier and the parent is modified. After freezing this hierarchy, the modifier (children) is removed and the parent (modified) has the resulting geometry.
Cinema generator or polygon objects must be converted to LWCAD objects before boolean modifiers can be applied to them.
Non-destructive Booleans offers the following modes:
Add - Unify the parent and child object, the result is stored to the parent object
Sub - Subtract the child from the parent, the result is stored to the parent
Int - Intersect parent and child, the result is stored in the parent
Reduce: Automatic reduction of polygons after a Boolean operation.
Destructive Booleans
Destructive Booleans
Destructive boolean operations are implemented in all Cut Tools.
Works when applied to selected polygonal objects and LWCAD objects.
Non-destructive Booleans offers the following modes:
Slc - polygons are sliced with the shape of the active tool
Sub - polygonal objects are subtracted with the shape of the active tool
Int - polygonal objects are intersected with the shape of the active tool
