#### Boolean COPOPER

Pointcloud Operator dialog box - Boolean Operator

This operation is applied on one or two COPOPER commands referring to the same COP command.

Applying the Boolean operation to a Pointcloud can be done by clicking the Pointcloud Boolean Operation button from the Pointcloud toolbar or by selecting the Operation | Pointcloud | Boolean menu item.

The Boolean Operator uses the following option:

- Type – Indicates the type of Boolean operator to apply: INTERSECT, UNITE, DIFFERENCE or COMPLEMENT.

UNITE – When applied to COPOPER1 and COPOPER2, the UNITE type generates a set of data points containing all the points in COPOPER1 and COPOPER2.

INTERSECT – This type generates the set of data points that have the same locations in COPOPER1 and COPOPER2.

DIFFERENCE – This type removes from COPOPER1 all the points that are in common with COPOPER2.

COMPLEMENT – This type generates the points that are not visible in COPOPER1 and is applied on one single COP or COPOPER command

Clicking Create after editing the command inserts a COPOPER/BOOLEAN SECTION command into the Edit Window like the following example:

COPOPER5 =COPOPER/BOOLEAN,UNITE,SIZE=0
