Add if both materials share the same conductivity |
None
Leaves both shapes as they are. Usually this is not recommended, because it will lead to an ambiguous distribution of material.
None to all
Same as None but no other intersection checks are performed. This is not recommended as well, it will lead to many ambiguous distributions of material.
Insert highlighted shape

Trim highlighted shape
Inserts shape A into shape B (see also Insert Mode).
Add both shapes
Adds shape A and shape B (see also Add Mode).
Intersect both shapes
