Multiple select an array of shells

Hello everybody,

Is there any way that we can multiple select an array of shells & then union it with a big shell ? It seems to impossible to do it in Alias. Smiley Sad

Shell. It is not surface, hull or CV.

You should give it a try with Shell Union or Shell Stich

Hi jmoltra,

I have already know this for a long long time. The problem is i can't multiple select all the shells in one shot, then press UNION and combine them once.

AS far as I know it won't be possible because the first shell you select while doing a Shell Union will be the host, and all the next selections will be hosted. So with a window select, Alias won't be able to determine the host one.
But it would be great that after first seleccion, we could select others with window selection.. Maybe you should post this as an idea into IdeaStation

stumbled into this problem now, too.

 

Its the year 2018 now and it still seems to be unsolved. Though Alias basicly is able to do boolean actions with multiple shells!

See the Screencapture i attached.

I even managed it to substract 100 little balls from the surface by zooming out as far as possible and then hit the "ant" with the cursor.

Is there really no pick box yet in 2019 for multiple shell selection?

我英語不好所以我製作視頻 

步驟1 。殼牌必須集團 

步驟2.您必須從SBD窗口(拳頭節點)中選擇組

第2步很重要。因為選擇第一個節點只有SBD。對象Lister不能

 

我希望它對你有所幫助。

优秀! 非常感谢你!(is that correct?)

Excellent! Thank You very much!

I cant read Chinese, but  "Ggl translate" seems to do a good job. The translation descibes what is to be seen in the video.

I use the SBD a lot, but didnt think of it in this situation.

 

Kind regards

 

hmm sorry, since i did not start this thread i cant mark your answer as solution.

Could some admin do that, maybe?
