Is it possible to do booleans in the in-world editor?
How do you make arches, for example, without booleans? How would you make a grand piano?

no boleans beyond "and"
However,, you can "hollow" a prim, and use cut to eliminate a certain radial section of the object as meaured from the center. These tools are limited though. How can you make an arch? Box prim. Hollow X% Hollow shape: Circle Cut Begin: 0.0, End: 0.5 Stretch and texture to suit. Want more? check out "Calgary Sandbox".. lots of architectural builds there. _____________________

Winter: thanks for you tip on hollows. i wouldn't have been able to make my concert grand piano without you... it's a bit rough, as i don't have the alignment of textures right (any advice there?) .... but here's what i have so far:

Jackline, I would say you're off to a very good start! Keep up the good work!
You'll probably need to play with texture repeats and with scaling the prims themselves a bit to get things just right, but you're doing extremely well so far. _____________________
Sorry, LL won't let me tell you where I sell my textures and where I offer my services as a sim builder. Ask me in-world.
