Message definition (Release notes/1.0)
The Boolean Operation LPE finally makes non-destructive boolean operations available in Inkscape. That way, two paths can be combined to a single shape, and both are still editable:
# Start with two paths. Rectangles or other shapes are also okay. Groups are not yet supported ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1352 Issue #1352]).
# Copy the second path into the clipboard (<code>Edit → Copy</code>).
# Select the first path and add the Boolean Operation LPE (<code>Path → Path Effects → Add path effect (Plus) → Boolean operation</code>).
# Link the second path to the LPE by clicking on <code>Operand Path - Link to path in clipboard</code>.

The Boolean Operation LPE finally makes non-destructive boolean operations available in Inkscape. That way, two paths can be combined to a single shape, and both are still editable:

  1. Start with two paths. Rectangles or other shapes are also okay. Groups are not yet supported (Issue #1352).
  2. Copy the second path into the clipboard (Edit → Copy).
  3. Select the first path and add the Boolean Operation LPE (Path → Path Effects → Add path effect (Plus) → Boolean operation).
  4. Link the second path to the LPE by clicking on Operand Path - Link to path in clipboard.
