Function Description

An intersection operation results in the common part of two or more objects. A new object is created by performing an intersection operation on a common region of two or more objects of the same geometric type. The common area of multiple objects is preserved and the rest is removed. It should be noted that the intersection operation is not supported between lines.

• If the pairwise intersection of the faces participating in the Object Operation is not an empty set, a simple object of the pairwise intersection will be generated after the intersection. Before

  intersection After	intersection

• If the pairwise intersection of the faces participating in the Object Operation is null, all the source objects will be deleted after the intersection, and a new object will not be generated.

  As shown in the figure above, the pairwise intersection of the faces involved in the operation is empty, and the source object will be deleted after the intersection.

• A description of the properties of the new object generated. You need to set Attributes in the Properties dialog box to hold that object and what to do with the field value. Refer to the Property processing dialogs description for descriptions of the Object Intersection Attribute Processing dialog box and the parameters on the dialog box.
• In the CAD layer, after the face object, Rectangle, circle object and oblique Ellipse object participate in the operation, the type of the new object generated is the face object.
• Intersect across layers. The selected objects in other layers will be intersected with the objects in the Current Editable Layer. After the operation, only the objects in the Current Editable Layer will change, and the objects in other layers will not change. For Multi-Layer Editing, objects in the specified editable layers are also intersected.

Function entrance

• Object Operation tab-> Object Editing group-> Intersect.

Operating instructions

1. With the layer editable, select two or more objects.
2. On the Object Operation tab, in the Gallery control in the Object Editing group, click the Intersect button in the Object Operation group to bring up the Intersect dialog box.
3. In the dialog box, set the objects you want to keep. Refer to the Property processing dialogs description for descriptions of the Object Intersection Attribute Processing dialog box and the parameters on the dialog box.
