    Can you select a single poly in a boole object? I created 2 cubes, made them editable, scaled down one cube and then did an A subtract B. So now I have a cube with a partial cube cutout. This does not go all the way through. I want to select the base polygon of the cutout and map an image to it but when I use the poly selection tool I can’t select any of the polys. I’m on vr 11.5. I hope this makes sense.

    I figured it out. After checking make single object I didn’t make the object editable.

    You can’t select polygons unless you make the boolean editable, but if you map the texture to the face of the small cube it will automatically be assigned to the bottom of the hole in the boolean.
