Mastering Modify Tools in Silhouette Studio

Hi gang, I'm a member of a few facebook groups for Silhouette users and they are amazingly friendly and helpful places to ask advice about suppliers, techniques and software. Today, there was a question about how to take one shape away from another and my friend mentioned that not many people know how to use the tools in the modify window.

I had a quick example which people found very useful, so figured I'd share here and also give you a pdf link in case you want to print it out.

In the example above, crop and intersect do the same thing, but if more than two shapes are selected then they behave differently.  Here's an example with three overlapping rectangles:

In case you're looking for it, the Modify button is just to the left of the Trace button.  You can also navigate to it from the Object menu at the very top.

I hope this helps, any questions just holler :)
