\b Cut operation cuts a shape with a list of other shapes.
To produce it, select in the main menu Operations - > Boolean - > Cut
\image html bool3.png "Cut dialog"
In this dialog:
- Input or accept the default \b Name of the resulting shape.
- Click the arrow button and select in the Object Browser or in the Viewer the Main Object, which will be cut by tool objects.
- Select the Tool objects, which will cut the main object.
- Activate the corresponding check-box if you wish to Detect Self-intersections .
- Activate \ref restore_presentation_parameters_page "Advanced options" if required.
- Press "Apply" or "Apply & Close" button to get the result (GEOM_Object).
\note This algorithm does not find all types of self-intersections. It is tuned
to detect vertex/vertex, vertex/edge, edge/edge, vertex/face and edge/face
intersections. Face/face intersections detection is switched off as it
is a time-consuming operation that gives an impact on performance. To find
all self-intersections use \ref check_self_intersections_page
"Detect Self-intersection tool".
This operation can be performed using a TUI Command:
geompy.MakeCutList(theMainShape, theShapesList, checkSelfInte)
Arguments: Name + a main shape + a list of other shapes + an optional flag for self-intersection check.
There is also a special TUI Command: for the Cut operation on two shapes (object and tool) :
geompy.MakeCut(s1, s2, checkSelfInte)
Arguments: Name + the object + the tool + an optional flag for self-intersection check.
Example:
\image html fusesn1.png "The initial shapes"
\image html cutsn.png "The resulting object"
Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of the use of
\ref tui_cut "Boolean Operations".

It provides a general review of the Partition and Boolean
operations algorithms, describes the usage methodology and highlights
major limitations of these operations.
