The Combine category of the node palette.
Add these from Combine in the node menu. Each links to its own page.
Intersection Points - a point wherever the boundaries of the two inputs cross (lines, circles, arcs, regions).
Split Curves - break every curve at its crossings, so each piece runs from one crossing to the next; the pass a lattice needs before Weave.
Region: Curves - close a set of curves into a filled region so it can feed the booleans; arcs stay arcs.
Region: Points - close an ordered list of points into a filled region; the order is the shape.
Auto Region - turn a pile of crossing curves into every enclosed region at once; the automatic sibling of Region.
Union - merge two regions A and B into one.
Intersect - keep only the area common to regions A and B.
Difference - region A minus region B.
Split Regions - shatter overlapping regions into a group of separate, editable regions.
Weave - decide which strand passes over which at every crossing, and draw the shadow that says so.
Crossing Census - list every crossing in a lattice, with the angles the strands leave it at.
Stability Sweep - try a range of tolerances and show which ones the lattice reads the same way.
