Using the glue option allows skipping Face This option is intended for cases when interfere with each other, but are just touching or overlapping. computation of the intersection part of the algorithmsfor the special cases where the arguments donot really Section, Volume Maker Cells and Builder operations. This The Gluing mode is a new option for the algorithms in Boolean Component, such as General Fuse, Boolean, Gluing operation intermediate files created hardwareand configuration.
