Mesh Boolean Node

The Mesh Boolean Node allows you to cut, subtract, and join the geometry of two inputs. This node offers the same operations as the Boolean modifier.

Inputs

Mesh 1/2

Standard geometry input.

Self Intersection

Correctly calculates cases when one or both operands have self-intersections. This involves more calculations making the node slower.

Hole Tolerant

Optimizes the Boolean output for Non-manifold geometry at the cost of increased computational time. Because of the performance impact, this option should only be enabled when the solver demonstrates errors with non-manifold geometry.

Properties

Operation

Intersect

Produce a new geometry containing only the volume inside of both geometry 1 and geometry 2.

Union

The two input meshes are joined, then any interior elements are removed.

Difference

Geometry 2 is subtracted from geometry 1 (everything outside of geometry 2 is kept).

Output

Mesh

Standard geometry output.
