Boolean- Intersect operation with "Select all bodies" option

carlos_rios044

Hello,
We are trying to find a way to automatically select all the bodies in a part studio for an intersect boolean operation. We are far from getting a satisfactory result but learning FeatureScript has been fun, does anybody have an idea or recommendation for this task?

use 

qBodyType(qEverything(EntityType.BODY), BodyType.SOLID)

Ok, but... Where am I supposed to insert this particular piece of code? 
Thanks!

Are you trying to find the material where all the bodies intersect?  Or find material where any bodies intersect?  Our boolean intersection does the former, but I've written a custom feature that does the latter:

Feel free to use the custom feature, or use it as inspiration.

Hello Jake,
I'm familiar with your FS, used it a few times, thanks!

We are trying to use the intersect option, but instead of querying for tools, we need to have some sort of "select all" option that uses all the parts/bodies available in the part studio.

@Jake_Rosenfeld Nevermind, used your FS and changed the "keep tools" value to False.

Thanks again!!!
