Morph Subtraction

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 12:27:22 GMT

Is there a way to subtract the red morph from 4 individual roof morphs in one single command similar to the SEO tool? Or do I need to create 4 red morphs and do the subtraction for each of the 4 roof morphs? Thanks.

Unless someone posts something I have not found, you will need four of the red morphs. Alternately, you can use the Union function on your four morphs to turn them into one and then do the Subtraction.

Just use the regular Solid Element Operation.
The four roof morphs are the target, the red one the operator.
Subtract then hide the red one in a hidden layer.

The advantage of this is you can move or edit the red morph and the hole will adjust to suit.

Subtracting one morph from another is a permanent (fixed) operation.

Barry/Erich, thanks. The morph route makes a lot of sense.

If you use SEO, there is a button on the bottom to make the operations permanent with morphs. This way you can use one operator on several morphs with 2 actions.
