  Blob object, CSG difference (Message 1 to 4 of 4)

I'm getting different results with using a blob object in a CSG difference,
using version 3.7b36 and 3.6.1c.
The output was BMP, same file except #version number changed to match povray
used.
The bottom left is the blob, some components have texture one does not. The blob
object has a material of yellow. The bottom right is using cutaway_texture in
the CSG, but I may be using it wrong.
I'm still working my way thought some combinations, but wanted to let people
know before I forget.

When using cutaway_texture, the object used to cut away part of the rest 
must NOT have any texture.

You use something like:
difference{
  blob{...}
  box{... pigment{rgb<0,1,1>}} <--- that texture must be removed.
  cutaway_texture
}

Another problem could be *where* you've added texture{Light_Blue} (and a few
other places in your code as well.)  The cutaway_textures documentation seems to
imply that its keyword needs to be the final thing in a CSG difference. (That's
how I've always used it, anyway.) Here, texture{Light_Blue} comes after it.
