Constructive Solid Geometry [message #47318]

Hi,
I am new to IDL and I was wondering whether it is possible to perform
3D Boolean operations (union, intersection, etc.) in IDL, which is
otherwise known as Constructive Solid Geometry (for examples see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_solid_geometry). I'd like to
intersect two 3D spheres and extract the intersection of the spheres as
a separate 3D object. To make it slightly more complex, an intersection
of two isosurfaces would even be better for my purposes. I have trawled
through the IDL documentation and I don't think there is an out of the
box solution, but maybe someone here knows of a solution?
Thanks!
Arko
