Subtraction Tool question.
-
Yesterday, I happened across a YouTube video on the Subtraction Tool for Sketchup Woodworking. The presenter was performing some impressive work, utilizing that tool, and I had hoped to be able to do the same. However, my version is SketchUP Make 2017, and I couldn't find modeling tools anywhere in the program. I thought that, maybe, that guy had been using a Pro version, so I went back to the video to check that. I found that he was using SketchUP Make 2016. Had that toolset been incorporated, previously, in SketchUP Make, but dropped in version 2017?

If you say Boolean Difference tool, it's existing only in Pro version!
But you have now a better plugin tool : BoolTools 2 more powerful than the native one!

(for Make & Pro) -
Do you have a link to that video?

If you want really use this sort of Diff volumic operation! -

(for Make & Pro)Thanks, so much, for sharing.
I wasn't able to view the video too clearly, for some reason, but that plugin does look interesting. . However, in the plugin's description, I saw that 'Subtraction' wasn't listed as one of the five, stated, actions. But one of them was 'Difference', and I wonder if that might be the same as 'Subtraction' - just renamed.

Yes of course it is the same thing!
In any case you have all the combinaisons! (with BoolTools 2 )
Addition, SubStraction, Intersection etc...
