union problem |
|
|
Say I have 2 cubes, and I want a hole through the center of each at
the same spot. The fastest way would be to draw a cylider that
passes through both and then subtract from the 2 cubes. The problem
is that the 2 cubes then become unioned and can't be seperated. Has
anyone else run into this? It's a little annoying.
Thanks

That's the way it is. So, make a shorter cylinder, copy it, then subtract
each cube/cylinder separately.

you can also separate the result of the union (if the two cubes are actually
separate) by selecting "SOLID EDITING ->SEPARATE"

Learn something new every day.
For years I've been doing it the way Paul suggests.

Either way, it's about the same number of clicks/keystrokes.

You're just used to the old way - like me.
This is really faster and easier.
