[Bf-committers] [Bf-blender-cvs] SVN commit: /data/svn/bf-blender [43739] trunk/blender/source/blender/ modifiers/intern/MOD_boolean_util.c: Fix #30000: Boolean modifier messing up multi material

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi,

It's kind of already implemented.  The problem is: modifier can't add new
materials to object, so if right operand (which is getting subtracted) has
some materials which doesn't exist in left operand (from which
object subtracts) there'll be some artifacts in texturing. The only way for
now is to manually add material from right operand to left operand and then
they should be nicely reused.

About plans for making this "copying" automatic -- nope, i don't have such
plans. It's simple a limitation of design and i'm not so big fan of digging
deep into this issue.
