![]() Shapes on layer B are subtracted from layer A These operations are available: operation ![]() Press the little '+' in the lower left to see options for framing. The number of frames is calculated automatic, if not set in the dialog. For a complex design the design is split into frames and processed step by step. Some operations like A merge and A xor only requires one layer and will ignore the other one. Also, the operation is chosen within this dialog. Via a dialog two source layers and the resulting layer are selected. For bis Boolean Operation the feature has a better performance to the Boolean Tools as the computations are split over all available processor cores. Optional the deletion of the source shapes can be set.Ī layer wide boolean operation is performed ignoring the cell hierarchy. Original shapes are maintained and not deleted in the default operation.Activate the layer in which the result should be added.( Set Selection to A, Set Selection to B) Select the needed shapes and set the elements used for the Boolean operation.With the Boolean tool, the operation is performed between two sets of shapes. Usage: go with the mouse over the first shape, enter the context menu and choose the Boolean operation, select the second shape. In Boolean Operations between two sets of shapes five different operations exists: union, intersection, difference (A-B and B-A) and either-or.īoolean Operation between two single shapes are included in the context menu (right-click) in the default mode ( select/edit). ![]() These operations are based on the Boolean algebra principles, and they are widely used. In summary, Boolean operations are used to create and modify geometric shapes by combining, subtracting, or intersecting them. These Boolean operations can be used to create complex shapes from simple ones, such as creating a hole in a rectangle by subtracting acircle from it, or to create a new shape by combining multiple shapes together, such as creating a new shape by combining a rectangle and a circle.
