Boolean Roles>>Outdside Body isn't highlighted

[instudios]

I'm having problems with using the Boolean Roles>>Outside Body command. I'm using the command to try and cut away one shape from another (two primitives). I'm assigning the shape I'm cutting from as the primary in the Boolean Cluster and everything seems to work fine until I try and assign the other shapes Boolean Role. The only other role that Groboto is letting me assign the other (smaller) primitive is "Inside All". With the exception of the "Primary and Clear Boolean Roles" options, everything else is grayed out/unselectable (See pic).

Walt,

It depends on which primitive you use. Any primitive can be used as primary or as Inside All trim. For many primitives other roles are available, like Outside Body, etc. But for the box primitive, this is all we are offering at this point - primary and Inside All trim. These limitations are discussed at greater detail here.
