Select more than one target body, Combine Cut

Select more than one target body, Combine Cut

I think the Combine tool should be able to select more than one body as the Target Body when the operation is set to Cut. In the example below I'd like to select the 3 rectangles and cut the cylinder out. I could use Boundary fill set to intersect but that takes twice as many clicks and is not as obvious an option.

Please yes !

Anything like this that lets a user do several things in a single step seems like a good thing

I would add this suggestion. When selecting multiple objects in a 3d program the pivot point is made to represent the groups center. Often this is what you want but I wish you had the control to snap the pivot point where ever you wanted. I don't mean only move by dragging, I mean snap to the parts of the new group.

I would love this ability, and use it all the time, great suggestion!

Status changed to: Future Consideration

HI Mark,

 

I think there a number of areas we can improve our boolean functions.  I'm changing this to future consideration as we likely won't get to this in the next year as we focus on improving the depth of our core modeling and sketch capabilities.

 

I have, however added this request to our backlog.

 

 best,

 

Jamie.

I've three bodies I want to cut with a fourth body.  It seems I have to go through the combine function for each of the three I want cut separately.  I'd like to be able to select several bodies to be cut at the same time.
