Boolean

 needs approval

Is the modifier which can be used to make boolean operations with two meshes. Three operations are allowed: union, intersection and difference. Order of meshes is important for difference operation. With A and B as the meshes:

• difference (A - B): the inner part of B is substracted from the inner part of A
• union: the inner parts of both meshes A and B are combined
• intersect: only inner parts both meshes have in common are kept

These operations take care of inner and outer parts of meshes (given by normals).
