Tool Settings
=============
Solver
Algorithm used to calculate the Boolean intersections.
:Fast:
Uses a mathematically simple solver which offers the best performance;
however, this solver lacks support for overlapping geometry.
:Exact:
Uses a mathematically complex solver which offers the best results and has full
support for overlapping geometry; however, this solver is much slower than the
*Fast Solver*.
Trim Mode
Geometry can be either added or removed by choosing one of these modes.
