Hi Rommo,

Could you post example or your 3dm file to help finding an answer to your question on boolean issue ?
Give us more explains about your question.
Doing boolean operation on an object included in another is possible. So post your file or an example.

Have fun !

You can make other kinds of repeating patterns by applying Array Dir in 2 different directions, see here for an example:
