[Inkscape-devel] Wrote a Boolean LPE - How to make operand path invisible?

Dear Inkscape Developers,

I just wrote a Boolean OP LPE. It was quite easy using sp_pathvector_boolop. It works well, just I can't figure out how to make the operand path, which comes in via a OriginalPathParam, invisible.

Also I have one design question:

Some operations are symmetric, others not. Currently my interface has a bool_op enum and a swap operands bool parameter. I wonder if it would make more sense to combine these into one like:

uninion intersection this minus operand operand minus this ...

I think this would be easier to use, but it would break consistency with the existing bool op menu operations.

Best regards,

Michael
