Boolean Operations (Shape Combining)

Combine shapes using Union, Subtract, Intersect, and Exclude.

Boolean operations enable you to construct intricate icons and logos by fusing simpler geometric primitives.

Union (Merge)

Combines overlapping vector shapes into one continuous unified contour.

Subtract (Difference)

Cuts the top selected shape out of the bottom shape, leaving a hollow cutout.

Intersect

Retains only the overlapping region shared by all selected shapes.

Exclude (XOR)

Preserves all outer regions while cutting out the overlapping intersection.

To use Boolean operations, select two or more vector paths on the canvas and choose the operation from the Object > Boolean menu or top contextual bar.
