As far as I know, you can not separate boolean objects that form a single volume. But for objects with disjointed volumes (Single object with two or more volumes standing independently ) you can use 'Seperate' option in the SolidEdit command to separate them.Originally Posted by ariasdelcid
Other than that ^^, the best you can do is Slice the parts.
If you have solid history on you may be able to CTRL+ click the object and simply drag it out of the other object.
EDIT: With SOLIDHIST off you can grab features and 'pull' them out of the solid. You need to run the separate command.

Great tip... You can use this option for converting boolean objects with a single volume into disjointed volumes. Please note that you still have to use Seperate option in the SolidEdit command to make them different solids. Thanks for the tip.Originally Posted by fhoffnar
Disadvantage of using solid history is your file size will growing bigger..Originally Posted by fhoffnar
Great tip fhoffnar. I think that's the best you're gonna do without 3rd party add-ons(I know AutoSolids can undo booleans).Originally Posted by fhoffnar
