How to
Start with a geometry you want to subtract from
You can use read feature to get the original flow feature, or the results of any other geometric operation.
If you want to subtract from geometries in Lists, use a map to cut from each geometry.
Feed in the geometry you want to subtract.
This can be Lists of multiple features!
The result is the original geometry with the area of the “B” geometries removed.
Use case
Create a parking solver that generates parking bays around overlapping buildings.
