Use the Combine Command

    Table of contents
    No headers

    The Combine command provides a means to perform Boolean operations within a part file. In this exercise, we will use the imported toolbody to cut out a portion of the upper body.

    1. On the ribbon, click 3D Model tabModify panel Combine.
    2. Select the upper body as the Base.
    3. Select the imported body as the Toolbody. Make sure that Keep Toolbody is unchecked.
      NoteYou can select more than one body to use as toolbodies. The number in parentheses indicates the total number of selected toolbodies. If Keep Toolbody is unchecked, the toolbody is consumed and cannot be used for further operations. If it is checked, the toolbody is available for further operations.
    4. Select the Cut operation.
    5. Click OK to cut the toolbody from the top cover and finish the command.
