booleanFragments()

def BOPTools.SplitAPI.booleanFragments	(		list_of_shapes,
			mode,
			tolerance = 0.0
	)

booleanFragments(list_of_shapes, mode, tolerance = 0.0): functional part of
BooleanFragments feature. It's just result of generalFuse plus a bit of
post-processing.

mode is a string. It can be "Standard", "Split" or "CompSolid".
"Standard" - return generalFuse as is.
"Split" - wires and shells will be split at intersections.
"CompSolid" - solids will be extracted from result of generelFuse, and compsolids will
be made from them; all other stuff is discarded.

slice()

def BOPTools.SplitAPI.slice	(		base_shape,
			tool_shapes,
			mode,
			tolerance = 0.0
	)

slice(base_shape, tool_shapes, mode, tolerance = 0.0): functional part of
Slice feature. Splits base_shape into pieces based on intersections with tool_shapes.

mode is a string. It can be "Standard", "Split" or "CompSolid".
"Standard" - return like generalFuse: edges, faces and solids are split, but wires,
shells, compsolids get extra segments but remain in one piece.
"Split" - wires and shells will be split at intersections, too.
"CompSolid" - slice a solid and glue it back together to make a compsolid

xor()

def BOPTools.SplitAPI.xor	(		list_of_shapes,
			tolerance = 0.0
	)

xor(list_of_shapes, tolerance = 0.0): boolean XOR operation.
