Library Part Maker - Boolean Subtraction does not work

Advisor

- I have made an object with the Library Part Maker
- The blue part of the object is made with a column that has a High Building Intersection Value.

- The slab that the object is sitting on has a Low Building Intersection Value.

- I assumed the automatic cutting that happens with the column and the slab would continue after the library part was made.

- but apparently not

- is there anyway to do this with the Library Part Maker??

Objects can not interact this way.  Once the object is created it's no longer going to behave like the base tools.

hummm -  from a tool design standpoint, that is a shame.

Convert them to Morphs maybe before saving them as Library Parts?
