+To produce it, select in the Main Menu Operations - > Boolean - > Fuse.

+In this dialog:
+- Input or accept the default \b Name of the resulting shape.
+- Click the arrow button and select in the Object Browser or in the Viewer the Objects to be fused.
+- Activate the corresponding check-box if you wish to Detect Self-intersections .
+- Activate the corresponding check-box if you wish to remove extra edges .
+- Activate \ref restore_presentation_parameters_page "Advanced options" if required.
+- Press "Apply" or "Apply & Close" button to get the result (GEOM_Object).

+\note This algorithm does not find all types of self-intersections. It is tuned
+ to detect vertex/vertex, vertex/edge, edge/edge, vertex/face and edge/face
+ intersections. Face/face intersections detection is switched off as it
+ is a time-consuming operation that gives an impact on performance. To find
+ all self-intersections use \ref check_self_intersections_page
+ "Detect Self-intersection tool".
+
+This operation can be performed using a TUI Command:
-To produce a \b Fuse operation in the Main Menu select
-Operations - > Boolean - > Fuse
+geompy.MakeFuseList(theShapesList, checkSelfInte, rmExtraEdges)
-This operation creates a shape from two shapes.
+Arguments: Name + a list of shapes + an optional flag for
+self-intersection check + an optional flag to remove extra edges.
-The \b Result will be any \b GEOM_Object.
-TUI Command: geompy.MakeFuse(s1, s2)
-Arguments: Name + 2 shapes.
-Advanced option:
-\ref restore_presentation_parameters_page "Set presentation parameters and sub-shapes from arguments".
+There is also a special TUI Command for \b Fuse operation on two shapes :
-\image html bool1.png
+geompy.MakeFuse(s1, s2, checkSelfInte, rmExtraEdges)

+Arguments: Name + 2 shapes + an optional flag for self-intersection
