Boolean

My Button Booleans cut a hole through my buttons where it looks like in the video it indented them down into the buttons. Any idea why?

    Hi Loren,

    Most likely it's a case of flipped Normals, probably on the buttons. Select the Console, switch to Edit Mode, select everything and SHIFT+N. That should fix the Normals and in Object Mode you should now see the Boolean working as expected.

    You can always check your Normals by enabling the Face Orientation Overlay (blue is good, red is bad):

    So if I wanted to have the flipped normals behavior, does that mean I have to invert my face to get a hole punched through?

    Boom, that did the trick. Thanks!
