Subtracting two primitive shapes

[rezama]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a hole in a shape by subtracting another shape from it. How can I do this?

For example, I would like to subtract a cylinder from a cuboid to create a cube with a cavity in it.

Thanks

Hello,

you can't do boolean operations on shapes. What you can do is group/ungroup/merge/divide shapes, and you can also edit shapes in the shape edit mode. Otherwise you will have to perform your boolean operation in a CAD program, and export the result as a mesh.

Cheers
