Sometimes executing a command can take many minutes. Boolean operations mostly. This happens when it is apparently difficult for S3D to decide whether the boolean is executable or not.  
I would really appreciate the possibility to cancel such an operation and not wait for the message “Boolean failed”

Thanks for your explanation. Pity though because sometimes it costs a lot of time waiting for the failure to happen
