First >Pb
I need two boolens for making one.
i try to explain me a bit better.
1 ) 2D close
rectangle
Size X = 30
OK
2) 2D close
rectangle
move rectangle in X a half of the first rectangle
Ok
I select the two rectangles
i go back to 2D close
a soon as i am in it, the two rectangle go bleu and then it is impossible to go to boolean because it need two 2D close curves
that is the probleme.

ok.
while you are in the 2D closed curve toolbox, you can add as many curves as needed... even curves with holes, that are called shapes (for example, if you create a big rectangle, and a small one inside, then you group the two curves to create a shape, you have a 2d square ring).
Add you first rectangle, size and move it.
Add a second rectangle (without leaving the 2D closed curve toolbox)
size and move it.
select both rectangles, use the boolean tool.
then click ok to leave the 2D closed curve toolbox.
in the 2d closed curve toolbox, you can add as many curves as needed (even text coming from TTF fonts). and if you want to use them as one curve, use Ctrl-A to select all the curves, and then the group tool before leaving the 2d closed curve toolbox.

should work... tell me.

That is correct work ok.
But if we leave 2D close in beetween two 2D Close definition curve .
wont work we have first to group them before leaving with "OK"
Is that correct ?

If we lath it and leave "Lath" with "OK". Latter on we delete the lath mesh with "Undo" that also delete the 2D close curve ? is that right.
I had an another crash but i have to investigate more

[craouette]

correct and right.
save the curve before leaving the 2D closed curve toolbox, or duplicate the curve before going to the lathe tool.

i am very sorry.

[craouette]
