A polyCBoolOp node is created when you perform a boolean operation. See About booleans.
You can use the following attributes to edit your boolean operation.
-
Operation
- Lets you apply a different type of operation after a boolean operation has been performed.
-
union
- Combines the volume of the selected meshes.
-
difference
- Subtracts the volume(s) of the second (and subsequent) selected mesh(es) from the first.
Note: Booleans let you extract multiple meshes from your first selection in one Difference operation.
-
intersection
- Leaves only the shared volume of the selected meshes.
-
Use Thresholds
- When enabled, the boolean operation automatically checks for and removes very small faces and edges using the specified Vertex Distance Threshold and Face Area Threshold values. This attribute is disabled by default.
Important: Use Thresholds is a legacy attribute that is only useful when you perform operations with the legacy boolean algorithm. It is recommended that you leave this attribute disabled when you use booleans.
