Merging Faceted Bodies

  1. Select the Merge tool.
  2. Select the first faceted body.
    The first faceted body is highlighted in blue
  3. Select the second faceted body or a solid body.
    The two bodies are merged into one.
    If a solid body is merged with a faceted body, the solid body is converted to a faceted body

The Merge tool also works on two Open faceted bodies to automatically create the union that produces a single, closed faceted body. An example would be two halves of a shelled body merged into a closed shelled body.

Patterned components are up-selected in the Boolean tools. In the example below, the cylinders were made as a pattern. Highlighting one pattern member highlights the entire pattern.
