[Bf-funboard] Boolean question

[Jean Montambeault]

Roger a écrit :

Roger, you must address your questions a user forum. This mailing list 
is for people who have well thought out ideas to enhance the usefulness 
of Blender. No doubt that better booleans would make Blender more useful 
but here you are supposed to come with a proposed solution. Your need is 
for help and the user forums are immensely more responsive for that.
If you redirect your very interesting question to the biggest of them 
all, http://blenderartists/forum/ and chose there the Modeling 
sub-category a lot of people and I will be more than happy to help you.
Have the best day sir.
