#
# This macro allows to create multi bool cut operation at
# selected objects. First selected object should be the base
# element and all other selected will cut the base. The copies will
# be created for cut, so the objects tree not change. Also there is
# automatic labeling for better cut hierarchy look. This macro has
# been created for special request
# https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=70941
# but is also available at Woodworking workbench.
