■ Subtraction (or difference): The Boolean object contains the volume of
one original object with the intersection volume subtracted from it.
Bound Vertex
Binding spline vertices via the Refine and Bind functions in
Editable Spline
(Vertex)
on page 606 is useful for connecting splines when building a spline
network for use with the
Surface Modifier on page 1695 .
Bound vertices are black, allowing them to be easily distinguished from
standard vertices. You cannot move a bound vertex directly. However,
changing the segment length by scaling it or by moving a connected vertex
causes the bound vertex to shift its position in order to remain at the segment's
midpoint. You can change a bound vertex's type (right-click the vertex, and
then choose the type from the bottom of the right-click menu), and if you
convert it to a Bezier or Bezier corner, you can manipulate its handles.
