Cutting a sphere by a box fails in one direction

[bernhard-42]

Test code

import cadquery as cq

show_object(
    cq.Workplane().sphere(1).cut(
        cq.Workplane().box(2, 2, 0.5)
    ).translate((0,0,2))
)
show_object(
    cq.Workplane().sphere(1).cut(
        cq.Workplane().box(0.5, 2, 2)
    )
)

Result: The top cut is ok, the bottom cut is broken

Environment:

CadQuery:

Successfully installed cadquery-2.2.dev531+g03c3266

Try with clean=False as a workaround.

Sorry for the late reply, missed your answer.

Do you mean

import cadquery as cq

obj = cq.Workplane().sphere(1).cut(
    cq.Workplane().box(0.5, 2, 2),
    clean=True
)
show_object(obj)

It still shows the wrong behaviour

[adam-urbanczyk]

I meant clean=False (see above).

Sorry, clean=False works, my bad

Please feel free to close the issue, if you don't want to track the workaround.

Thank you!

The issue is fine, those things do get improved with newer OCCT releases.
