Set defaults for new boolean input objects

You can set the default boolean operation and display mode for new boolean input objects per node using the Boolean stack or universally using the Boolean Operations options.

To set defaults for new boolean input objects per node

1. In the Boolean stack Select Settings > Operation for new inputs/Input object display and then choose a default(s) from the drop-down menu.
2. Click Add Selected Objects.
   

   The defaults are set for the selected node.

   This method sets defaults at the node level, giving you the option to use different defaults for different boolean nodes.

To set defaults for new boolean input objects universally

1. In the Boolean Operation options, select Mesh > Booleans > <BooleanOperation> > .
2. Select a default from the Operation for new inputs and Input object display drop-down menus.

The defaults are set universally across all Boolean operations and are applied to all boolean nodes in your scene.
