I placed a cube with a cylinder through the y axis of the cube.

I selected the cube.

R click on workspace and select Lots more

R click on Experimental Boolean to subtract

Left click on cylinder

R click to execute

I now have a cube with a hole through it, which is exactly what I was wanting, EXCEPT that the 2 faces of the cube that the cylinder passed through are also gone. Do I need to set a preference or is this normal and I need to redraw those faces?

Thanks,
Will

Will thanks for your step by step I was about to give up! Having said that, I find the new Boolean process convoluted, and difficult, to replicate, without having 1st made a text file to refer to, on my computer screen. From a users point of view, I would have stayed with the A & B concept. We sometime forget that established principles regardless how old, are still being taught by AutoDesk at every institute of higher learning. 3dMax has used the A & B concept, going back to 1997.

Even this later addition: see attachment worked well!

P.S. I hope my comments are ONLY interpreted as constructive criticism
