T4Z Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 I'm expecting smooth cuts when I subtract the lines from the circle. I happened before but i made an error, now it keeps staggering near the top few lines. Any pointers as to what im doing wrong? The circle and rectangles have been converted to curves. I have tried doing them individually but keep getting the same error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4Z Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 PS. It looks like the top rectangle is trying to join at the mid point of the circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T4Z Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 Hi there. I'm not at my laptop right now, but I've literally just got 8 rectangular shapes and a circle behind. This happens when both curves and actual shapes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lepr Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 You can work around the bug (which is still in the current 1.8.4 beta) by doing a non-destructive subtract and then optionally converting the resulting Compound object to a Curves object. A non-destructive boolean operation is performed by holding down alt/option key when invoking the boolean operation.

Just wanted to say that when i pressed Alt + Subtract Boolean i got the result i was after. Many thanks for the help! Chris M.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
