Apologies if this has been raised before , although I cannot see it in recent posts.

I.have been using 2.78 for about a month and have just tried a Boolean operation, It appears that the union and difference options have been reversed; that is, selecting union results in a difference operation and vice versa. Is this a known bug?

Do you mean 2.76? There isn't a release candidate for 2.78 that I'm aware of yet.

Flip the normals in the area of the union. If they are facing inward it has the effect you are describing.

Hey, if you work with booleans, have you seen the BoolTool addon for Blender? This thing is wild. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDBKNhxmVRE
