I never use children, and this simple use has me thinking I do not
understand the concept at all.

I expected to see a slice of the sphere, but I see the sphere plus the
cylinder.

module Split() {
    intersection()
        color("red") cylinder(h =3, d = 150);
        children(0);
    }

Split() sphere(10);

Due to missing {} the effective code is:

union() {
intersection() { cylinder(); }
sphere();
}

ciao,
Torsten.

Yes, with the correct brackets it works.

Thanks! LOL! I was so focused on children() that I stopped programming
entirely!
