VPython does not offer any capability for constructing objects through
subtraction of solids. That's a difficult problem to handle in real
time.<br>

  <br>
Say I have 4 spheres, and I want to make the intersection part
disappear. Is there any easy way to only show the slice instead of the
overlapping parts.<br>
Here is the code:<br>
  <br>
from visual import *<br>
  <br>
sphere(pos=(0,2,0),opacity = 0.2,color= color.white, radius =2) <br>
for t in arange(-pi,pi,2*pi/3):<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sphere(pos = (1.2*cos(t),0,1.2*sin(t)), opacity = 0.2,color=
color.white, radius = 2)<br>
  <br>
  <br>
Any input will be appreciated.<br>
  <br>
Best<br>
Ran<br>
