Thanks Michael. I put everything back on the default style and tried it with the selection box. For me it cuts all the way through rather than creating a pocket. Why?

If I do it the way shown in your second video then it works as expected.

Video is here, file is attached:

Also what did you press in your first video to switch to polygon rendering?

I am reluctant to use V4 because I don't know how much it will cost to upgrade when it will be released.

Andy, on your video, curves are included in the selection, so the detail is cut through.

Thanks WN. In Michael's video he drags a box and it only selects the surface. If I drag a box it seems to select the surface and edges. Why?

Update - OK I see I have to go to Types -> Curves and hide them first...

Hi Andy, yes curves can also be used as a cutting object which cut all the way through an object. So with those selected you had multiple cutting objects.

V4 will be a free upgrade if you've ordered V3 within the past 1.5 years or so, or $100 if you ordered V3 before that.

WN - thanks for the video - it helps.

Michael - ah ok. I ordered Aug 1st 2018 so just a bit too long.

Hi Andy, I haven't determined the exact cutoff date for the free upgrade yet. It will be at least Sep 2018 so yes you might end up just barely outside it.
