Summary
With INTERSECT, you can create a 3D solid from the common volume of two
or more existing 3D solids, surfaces, or regions. If you select a mesh, you can
convert it to a solid or surface before completing the operation.
You can extrude 2D profiles and then intersect them to create a complex
model efficiently.
The selection set can contain regions, solids, and surfaces that lie in any
number of arbitrary planes. INTERSECT divides the selection set into subsets
and tests for intersections within each subset. The first subset contains all the
solids and surfaces in the selection set. The second subset contains the first
selected region and all subsequent coplanar regions. The third subset contains
the next region that is not coplanar with the first region and all subsequent
coplanar regions, and so on until all regions belong to a subset.
