good evening to all, we consider a cube on which I want to join through the boolean some small spheres. then after using the Boolean union I created a unique solid formed by the cube and the spheres.
But then I would like to put in place the spheres, the small cubes, so I have to lift the spheres and put small cubes. is there a command that "smonta" all by bringing the whole cube and the separate spheres to then add the small cubes? obviously not using the command cancels or the exploding command that just explodes all the surfaces.
Thank you all.
 
I would have solved by copying the cube and balls (before the boolean) by making a "backup" in another layer that obviously locks and slips to need, could it be as a solution?
 
Thanks for the surgery. certainly your valid suggestion I had already adopted, but it would be interesting to go back only from the created piece and without the copy.
 
I understand, unfortunately I think (I am a newbie so take with a pinch of salt what I say) that it is not possible to do what you mean by the direct nature of rhino, once the buolena the information relative to the initial solids disappear, for this thing you should use a parametric modeler. . .
 
you can only do this if the program allows you to track all operations carried out on the solid (the cube in the specific case) and keep track of operations even after saving the project file and then reopened. on 3ds max there is this possibility, in the sense that you can keep track of the modifiers that have been applied to the cube (e.g. the bolean operations) then the possibility to go to disassemble the cube by separating it from the spheres, as in the meantime the cube with the definitive solid spheres has not been converted. In this case you would lose all the history of the model, and at that point you should reconstruct it daccapo.
I do not think that on rhino there is the possibility to preserve all the history of operations that are carried out on a solid or surface.
