A simple Booelan Diff (or Trim if you want open volumes) by a straight line + hide one part (or move) don't make the same ?

"A simple Booelan Diff (or Trim if you want open volumes) by a straight line + hide one part (or move) don't make the same ?"
It would if I wanted to affect the geometry. It's really a display thing i need, to hide everything on one side of the cut line temporarily.

Make undo after ;)
But Michael will tell you if it's doable or not! )

I guess it's "possible" in the sense that if I buckled down and worked on just that for a year or so maybe it could happen...
It's just fairly tricky finding spare years of work time hanging around though. ;)
There are a lot more basic kinds of editing to tackle first way before that kind of more fancy editing though.

Ah. v4 then?!

Hi al,
> Ah. v4 then?!
It would be fairly tough for v4 as well, since it would be difficult to have a new version that only had just that one new feature in it.
The big problem with undertaking tasks that are hugely time consuming is that it's basically trading that feature for numerous other ones that I could have spent time on instead...
But that's where this discussion thread is helpful - if numerous people started posting here that having that one single feature was the most important thing for them outweighing anything else then that would move it up the priority list.
