Oops, I didn't realize there are two different Booleans. Thanks!
Yes, the modify-boolean looks much better to me, but still I have too many steps if I want just to transfer some selected polys to my main mesh.
What kind of plugin would be needed to implement this kind of functionality? Where in the SDK would I start?
Thanks,
Thomas Helzle

Subject: Re: "insert polygons" without merge?
Thanks for the answers.
I think Boolean Union doesn't really help, since it also creates a new
mesh like merge and all I want is to transfer some polys - I don't even need
any fancy parameter transfers.
Is there a "deeper reason" why a function like this doesn't exist?
Would it be hard to write such a tool? Where would I start?
Maybe I should finally look into more than just shader writing ;-)
I need this ten times a day so I may even be motivated enough if nobody
else did this already... (hard to believe)
The mindthink tools are no longer available AFAIK?
Thanks,
Thomas Helzle
