Hi

Is there any way to use , for example, the same cube several times in a difference operation?
I have a complex model, with a lot of objects, and I'm going to slice it. The best thing would be If I could use the difference on the whole group, but that don't seam to work, the other way is to do the operation for each object.
I only know one way to do that now and that is to make one cube for each object, and then make a diference, that is veery time consuming if you have a colmpex scene.

Thx in advance =)

if I understand you correctly, you have a bunch of identical cubes and want to cut the same piece out of every cube?
One thing that comes to mind, is to duplicate the original cube
as instances, so when you cahnge the orig. cube, all others will follow.

I didnt mean that, but thats how I'm doing it now.
I wanto be able to use e cube to effect a whole group, or 1000 objects, without using the difference on the cube with each objects by hand.

Say that I has a houes, and I wanto slice it, with every thing in it too, like tv's chairs and so on with one cube.
