Options

On the Options tab of the Wireframe Boolean Operations form, the option to define a custom surface orientation is provided. You can also choose to snap common triangles to remove any potential discrepancies.

Additional Options

Snap common triangles

Select this check box to remove any discrepancies that may result from numerical precision problems on shared triangles.

Custom Surface Orientation

Select this check box to define how the application treats the surface where “inside” and “outside” are defined during the following operations:

  • SOLID ABOVE SURFACE
  • SOLID BELOW SURFACE
  • ADVANCED SURFACE AGAINST SOLID

The default methodology uses the z-value (horizontal). For example:

When the check box is selected, the application will automatically determine the surface orientation from input A, a manual override of Dip and Dip Direction values is available. Alternatively, click the Calculate from A button to set the orientation of the surface to match the orientation of input (A).
