Hi!
Is it the right behavior, that after an intersection the resulting object
has on cutted areas no texture anymore? While areas remaining uncutted stay
textured with the original texture.
Though even stranger for my feeling is that adding a texture at the end of
the intersection statement (See the outcommented line) does not texture the
_whole_ resulting object, but only the cutted areas.  (Though the result is
optimal for me in this case:)

What's the concept behind this behaviour? (Cutted areas are untextured and
don't stay with the original texture. Uncutted areas aren't affected by a
texture-statement at the end of the intersection-statement.)

Greetings
Dieter
