7 Fuse feature implements a Boolean operation for fusion of a set of main objects with a set of tool objects.
9 To perform Fuse in the active part:
11 #. select in the Main Menu *Features - > Fuse* item or
12 #. click |bool_fuse.icon| **Fuse** button in the toolbar
14 There are 2 options for creation of a Fuse:
16 .. image:: images/bool_fuse_simple.png
20 **Simple** simply fuses selected objects.
22 .. image:: images/bool_fuse_advanced.png
26 **Advanced** fuse with additional functionality for subshapes of compsolids/compounds.

39 - **Objects** - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be fused with tool objects.
40 If a subshape that belongs to a compsolid/compound was selected, other shapes of this compsolid/compound will be ignored.
41 - **Remove intersection edges** - if enabled, edges that lie on the same surface will be removed.
42 - **See preview** - button shows a result of the operation.
46 .. py:function:: model.addFuse(Part_doc, objects, isRemoveEdges)
48 :param part: The current part object.
49 :param list: A list of objects.
50 :param boolean: Remove edges flag (optional).
51 :return: Created object.
56 The Result of the operation will be a single shape which is a fuse of selected objects:

75 - **Objects** - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be fused with tool objects.
76 If a subshape that belongs to a compsolid/compound was selected, other shapes of this compsolid/compound will be cut from
77 other objects (to avoid self intersection) and added to the result.
78 - **Tools** - contains a list of objects selected in the Object Browser or in the Viewer, which will be fused with tool objects.
79 If a subshape that belongs to a compsolid/compound was selected, other shapes of this compsolid/compound will be ignored.
80 - **Remove intersection edges** - if enabled, edges that lie on the same surface will be removed.
81 - **See preview** - button shows a result of the operation.
85 .. py:function:: model.addFuse(Part_doc, objects, tools, isRemoveEdges)
87 :param part: The current part object.
88 :param list: A list of objects.
89 :param list: A list of tools.
90 :param boolean: Remove edges flag (optional).
91 :return: Created object.
96 The Result of the operation will be a single shape which is a fuse of selected objects and tools:
