to remain separated 3d objects subtracted with only one solid

[ginspe]

Good morning to all,
I ask you the courtesy to explain to me if it is possible to remove in a single time a series of 3d elements with another solid without however that the 3d elements to be subtracted lose their layers and not as it happens of defoult that merge after cutting. Thank you very much. autocad 2022

I didn't understand the question.
to simplify we use solid to and solid b.
Which one is a group?
after the subtraction you want to keep them both?
Do you want them to keep other features?
explain better

a system of 3 solids that must be cut by another solid. if I do the traditional procedure select the 3 solids, command subtract, and select the solid "tractor". result: objects cut but join. Is there a way to cut them without joining them?
I don't know how to insert a picture otherwise it would be all clearer

the grey solid must cut the other elements, but they must remain separated from the cut.... Now I have to do it one at a time if I want them to be separated. Thank you.

Can't you use a tip?

 

[prismacad]

After doing the subtraction operation, use the separate command (from the solid menu) to separate each element.

 

[lattu]

In this case I would also use the tip, alternatively you can make copies of the grey solid and make 3 separate subtractions

autocad purtope does not allow to recover the entities object of bolean operation.
the final solid will end up on the level of the entity that is served to subtract or join other entities, regardless of the layers of the other entities.

The layers are lost, but it could be useful to tell autocad to record and show the history of bolean operations. This allows you to display solid cages (recallable with the control button after selecting the solid "mother". cages that you can move even after carrying out the bolean operations.
I made a little video. in the example I created 3 parallelepipeds placing each of them in separate layers. After the subtraction operation, however, remains the cage that ends in the layer of the mother entity.
(I hope I correctly interpret the post question)

as unwritten... in the first post we talked about solid subtraction but in fact the best solution is the one prospected by gp. e ♪, which allows you to store layers
i.e. create a cutting planar surface and use the pull command with surface option, then eliminating the parts of the solid you do not need.
using the command separates solids if necessary.

hi everyone, I put my contribution even if it's been time, the command to use is "verification interference" that creates you in solid interference to be subtracted to each group solid. a greeting to the whole forum. a.
