Creation method

There are two options for creating a Surface Intersection node.

  • The first way to create a Surface Intersection node using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need, or words associated with this node.
    • intersect , boolean , surface , si
  • The second way is to select a Surface Intersection node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Boolean Operation > Surface Intersection

Steps

  • Create a Surface Intersection node.
  • Connect the first surface we want to find an intersection with to the first port.
  • Connect the second surface we want to intersect to the second port.
  • Add a port for additional surfaces using the "add port" function in the port menu and connect other surfaces to the added ports.

After creating a node, connect the first surface with which we want to find an intersection to the first port, then connect the second surface to the second port in order to find the intersection between these two surfaces. For more than two surfaces, you need to add ports using the "add port" function in the ports menu and connect other surfaces to these ports. On the output port, we will get the result of the intersection.
